im getting forced to get ebt/snap even though they know im leaving next month. i live with him and his family who are racists transphobic and abusive. i leave the 14th back to my moms but they're trying to force me to stay by having me get medical ebt and a job. i don't know what to do anymore but wait and make excuses for the job. any ideas?

      I asked my mom what to do and she told me to tell his mom and now i might be leaving earlier because she might tell the person driving me something to stop her from driving me and force me to stay so her son will be happy. The ebt person knows im living with domestic violence and will be leaving next month so i cant do it. Im not worried about going back to California as ill have my cats and a few fake friends. I will probably start working again but on my own account so i can actually earn money

      In that case, maybe apply for the EBT if that gets them off your case. Not like you're obligated to stay once you've received benefits, just make sure you cancel them before you go so they don't try to commit fraud in your name. As for the job, go through whatever motions keep you safe. If you get an offer for an interview and have to go, mention to the company that you're moving mid-January--no one wants to train someone knowing they'll leave in less than a month. Besides, hiring for seasonal help usually starts in September, so lots of jobs will be sparse on the ground anyhow.

      If you're going to be in the same state after you move, EBT is a good call anyway. You'll have to update your location (some counties have different requirements), but it's still handy.

      Look for a job that you make like, even if it's temporary, in the area that your mom lives in. If you could maybe start the process for the ebt, if not no worries say it's easier to wait till you are at your next housing unit to have that. I'm not really an expert for ebt so sorry if this isn't helpful lol!
