WIC Income Guidelines

Contact WIC at 786.336.1300 to schedule an appointment. Our income guidelines should only be used as a reference.

If you receive food assistance (SNAP), Medicaid or Temporary Cash Assistance (TCA) you are automatically income eligible.

Many working families are a part of WIC.

If you have more than 8 people in your household, please call 786.336.1300 for more details.

Things to consider for income and household size:

  • For a pregnant woman, each unborn baby counts as 1 extra person in the household size.
  • Maternity / Paternity leave
  • Loss of employment (temporary or long term)
  • Gaps in income (i.e. teacher summer break)
  • Caring for a family member in your household
  • Private health insurance does not affect eligibility
  • Enrollment in other government assistance programs not required.
