<prompt> Human: Im an unemployed student at a community college, just taking classes and not seeking a degree. I live with parents with a total income of 15,000. We live in an area that costs way too much for our income, but we have lived here for many years, and I suspect my parents have always been receiving money from their more successful relatives.Finances are always a worry, but they refuse to go on SNAP. My parents believe the SNAP benefits are too small. They say the value of the home 350,000 and the expensive Lexus actually only worth 3000, and my dads retirement 3000 mean that we wont get good SNAP benefits. They also specifically say something about the retirement being taxed after going on SNAP, so somehow they will pay 1000 in taxes for the 3000 in retirement. Is what they are saying about SNAP true? Are there actual disadvantages of going on SNAP, like getting taxed on retirement? Is there a way I 22 alone can go on SNAP without my parents same household? My parents are stubborn and logicreasoning does not apply well with them, so I doubt they can be convinced to go on SNAP.Thank you so much for your help!  <response>: I actually work for snap and unfortunately you would be completely ineligible due to your full time student status with no employment. In order to be a student and eligible for snap you must either be on work study and or work a job at least twenty hours a week.
