Find benefits you may qualify for.

No. It's an estimate based on published federal income limits and your state's rules where we have them. Only the agency that runs each program can decide whether you qualify, and things like savings, immigration status and local income limits can change the answer.

When you ask us to email your results, we save your answers and results with your email (and phone number, if you add one) so we can send them to you and let you know when rules change for those programs. We never save your answer about citizenship or immigration status. You can unsubscribe at any time. See our privacy policy for details.

The 2025 budget law (Public Law 119-21) changed several programs. SNAP's 3-month time limit now covers adults up to age 64 and parents whose youngest child is 14 or older. From January 1, 2027 (earlier in a few states), adults 19 to 64 on expansion Medicaid must show 80 hours a month of work, school, training or volunteering unless they're exempt, and renew every 6 months. Fewer noncitizens can get SNAP, Medicaid and CHIP. The finder includes these rules, so answer the work and citizenship questions for the most accurate estimate.

Some limits are set by each state. Ten states have not expanded Medicaid to most adults, and many states let households earn more than the federal SNAP limit. The finder uses each state's rule where the federal government publishes it.

The finder uses the 2026 federal poverty guidelines, SNAP limits for October 2026 through September 2027, and 2026 Medicare Savings Program limits. We update them every year when the agencies publish new figures.

Apply, or call the agency. “Worth checking” means your answer depends on something the finder can't see, like your county's income limits or your expenses. Applying is free and there's no penalty for not qualifying.
