What Are the Requirements for Welfare/food Stamps?

Question by A.M.P: What are the requirements for welfare/food stamps?
What are the current requirements for welfare/food stamps? Do they vary by state or are they national? Does anyone have links to websites (official/informative not blogs) that show requirements and how much is given out?

I’m doing a school project on welfare abuse and how to minimize it, so if anyone has facts (with sources, no opinions please) on that, that would be much appreciated. Thanks!

For me to learn about the food assistance in Washington State, I Google — Washington State DSHS. Go to your state’s government website and just follow the links there and you should be able to get all the info you need.
Food assistance requirements:
Proof of identification and citizenship/legal residence status.
Verification of household size, income, shelter and utility expenses.
