cash assistance?!? HELP!

so I'm 17 and I'm married I live in Arizona and my husband has cardio myapothy (heart failure) we have been trying to get his disability because he physically can't work.  He wants to but the doctors say no.. he has to get a heart transplant done.. we are already on a waiting list. He is 19. I am 24weeks 3days pregnant. DO you think that I could apply for cash assistance? We live with his parents.. and they support us.  Cause no one will hire me since I'm so far along in my pregnancy and will be starting school soon. His disability hasn't gone through yet and we don't know when it will.. so do I qualify for cash assistance?

If you have to pay rent to them, or a bill, or anything then tell the office BC you'll receive more benefits. And maybe your parents don't make enough and can get benefits to. That way it won't be a load on then having you, your husband, and baby to feed,
It helps a lot!

Your parents don't matter, don't put them on the application. It only maters if they are receiving benefits, then you have to.

If you want food stamps, both you and your husband have to be working, if you are in your last trimester you don't have to work, if your husband is disabled they can help him get disability and not work. But he has to go in with you.
