Re: Welfare fraud

Depending on the amount of aid you received, this could be a felony, in which you can do state prison time. It is very easy for the state to check up on this - by running your name and social security number through the IRS and comparing that to your recertification.

A lawyer may be best able to advise you. Otherwise you are sitting on a landmine that may go off at any time.
