Do I Qualify for WIC Benefits?
To be eligible for WIC, you must meet the following criteria:
You live in Washington state, and
- Have a medical or nutrition need, and;
- Are pregnant, a new mother, or have a child under age 5
- Foster children under age 5
- Foster teens who are pregnant
You meet the income guidelines:
- Eligibility is based on gross monthly income and nutritional need. A household is defined as a group of related or non-related individuals, who usually, although not necessarily, are living together and share income. A woman who is pregnant is counted as a family of two. If she is having twins, she is counted as a family of three. A foster child is counted as a family of one.
- Gross income is income before taxes and deductions. Your family may still be eligible even if you are working, a single parent or receiving SNAP assistance.
- If you receive Basic Food Program benefits, Medical Assistance or Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) you are income eligible for WIC.
