There is a law that immigrants are prohibited from receiving government assistance and have to have a sponsor who accepts financial responsibility for them.

Yeah but that only applies to white immigrants like me

I had to sign documents and swear with right hand raised that I understood I would be deported if I even applied for any type of assistance...I wasn’t entitled to any as I wasn’t an American citizen..

I had to bring enough money to live on until I received my green card and could then work...usually 90 days...

Thanks for your post.

There is nothing better than first hand experience and information.
