Check in here if you are not eligible for unemployment benefits [View All]

Myself and my SO are both subcontractors who do professional jobs (her a marine biologist observer, myself an independent private investgator). We have paid self employment tax for years but are ineligible for claiming it on the back end.

We are eligible for food assistance...and will most likely be trying to get it again.

The good news about being so close to rock bottom is that the final fall wont hurt that much, not too far to fall. My butts been skimming along the bottom for almost two years now.


I fault no one who is eligible for assistance but remember that there are a lot of us out here with no hope of a government safety net.
