But op why did you include the information about going to Hawaii, obiviously people are going to flip out over that.

Because they wanted to know what his wife could use as ID for domestic travel. Nothing to 'flip out over' there. Where they go for their honeymoon is their business.

Yes but asking about food stamps and then asking about a lavish trip in the same thread is a hot button. Im not flipping out personally but unless you have been in America for 5 minutes clearly you know people will react as we have seen on this post. Also when you post on a thread whatever you share your making it other people's business to comment on, otherwise forums wouldnt work.

He didn't ask for their opinons of people who get food stamps or analysis of his personal situation. He asked specific information and thiose that criticized him fail to answer the question.

She can use her passport as ID to fly to Hawaii, and YES he can get food stamps. Those are the answers the rest is pompous BS. We have a system to help people that need it, if someone does not like thaqt there are avenues to pursue that do not include ridicule of people using the system we have. I will note that those "taxpayers" will gladly take any sort of tax credit or deduction they can which is also part of our system and is in no way different than any other subsidy given by the government. Gripe about someone getting $3500 in food stamps but gladly take a $5200 education credit, $1000 per child credit, chiold care credit and ad nauseum until in fact they really pay no income tax at all. 47% of Americans pay NO income tax after deductions and credits.

People need to have a little more thought in their process.

The other problem, and main problem here is this ridiculous Affidavot of Support which should no teven exist. Eliminate and simply make family based visa recipients ineleigible for public aid until they are citizens. Period. Job done. This process of trying to determine HOW they will get the money BACK if your spouse becomes a public charge is STUPID. Why not just NOT give the money to begin with? :wacko:

He asked questions and the posts that were deleted simply stated their own opinions and judgement against the OP. They did not answer his questions. Forums will not work if everytime someone posts a question people are allowed to 'flip out' and spew hateful judgmental ####### without ever answering the actual question. There are off-topic forums here at VJ for those that wish to rant about their political opinions.

Me too. My taxes were reduced more than $11,000 PLUS the first $2600 of two of our family's educational expenses were paid with tax credits. That's more than the entire family could collect in food stamps, but we make too much money to get food stamps so we get tax deductions and credits instead. So do you. When someone comes forth and says "I pay taxes and do not take any credits or deductions I am entitled to", then they will have some grounds to criticize someone else.

And your point is? That post was obviously in response to QueenE's post #16. I answered the OP's question yesterday. Check page 1, post #2.
