Way to prevent Welfare Fraud

Monitor income by using the Income Eligibility Verification System and make home visits to ensure the need for assistance.  Recipients of benefits should have to justify how they spend the income they receive. A home visit should be able to determine the need for assistance. The purpose of the home visit is look for inconsistencies with the recipients application for assistance and actual living conditions.

  1. I agree with the home visits to ensure proper qualifications and requirements for government assistance.They need to sit at their home and go over papers and income verifications (and needing to report all incomes, if they get a job.) Great source!
