If so, then nevermind. If not, how do the two differ as far as hoop-jumping?

Thanks!
In my experience with this in Illinois, the requirements for getting public assistance include ID, proof of address, etc., HOWEVER, those things are required for the applicant, not for every member of the household. Plenty of low income households contain multiple citizens of voting age.
