Public assistance transfer when moving to a new state
Posted: Thu Jan 04, 2018 5:23 am
Hello,
I am writing to find out what is needed to apply for public assistance when moving from one state to another.
Here is my situation:
My husband and I moved to Harrison NE from Sacramento CA last October. We bought a house and were able to pay cash for it so we don't have a mortgage payment. We have plans on starting our own business. However, the house is in need of many repairs and in addition to that both of our vehicles are in need of repairs. At this time we only have one running vehicle. So long story short- we have run out of money and don't have family or friends to turn to for help. Only plan on being on public assistance till we can get back on our feet.
There is no work available in the Village of Harrison and the closest towns are 30+ miles away. It will be hard for my husband to find work since him a registered * offender and over 50. I am 47 with type 2 diabetes with some minor other health issues that makes it difficult to even do daily housework.
We need assistance for paying utilities and buying food.
Water, sewer, and garbage is one bill (amount varies since our water is metered) $75/month
Electricity - approximately $85/ month
Phone and internet - $85/ month
Cell (we are using pay per use) @ $45 for each line
Heating: propane tank costs approx. $600 to fill it up and this past winter, while trying to be conservative, still had to have it filled about three times.
Food- it's only the two of us and our two dogs.
Car insurance: premium $300
We don't have medical insurance and I am in the need for medical, dental and vision for my public aid when moving. I need insulin and thyroid medicine to get healthy so I can get daily chores done and find a job, vision -my current glasses are old and need a new prescription. And being a diabetic vision loss is something I really want to prevent. And as for dental, yep. I need big time help there too as I have lost a majority of my upper teeth and can hardly eat anything since I cannot chew except with my front teeth. My husband thankfully is strong as an ox and healthy.
When winter returns our only heat source other than propane is a small fireplace in a room that needs major repairs. When we first moved in prior to having propane, the walls in that room (thankfully that room only) was getting frost on the inside!!
I would also like to know if there's assistance for paying medical bills in my new state. When we moved in it was the very next day I had to go to hospital emergency room (due to diabetes) and was admitted and was there for three days and the bill is about $20,000 dollars.
Our need for assistance is urgent. We do not have any other bills, no credit cards, car payments, rent or mortgage. Just need assistance paying monthly utility bills and food.
