Not having enough money can stop you
from going back to school or from getting and keeping a
job you really like.
If you need more money, you may be able to get help if
you have a social security number. Here are some ways to
help you get money while you are working and while you are
building your career:
Get money back from the government.If you qualify, you
can get as much as $4,140 just for filing your income
tax return. This is called the Earned Income Tax Credit.
Get help paying for child care.You
can get help paying for child care, depending on how
much money you earn. Each state has rules about who can
get this help, and how to get it.
Get help paying for health care. You
or your children may be able to get help paying for health
care. Even if you are working, you
may be able to get help.
Get help paying for food. The government
gives money to people who have low incomes to buy the
food they need. This is the food stamp program. Find
