    Yes definitely. All they need is a passport and they can legally stay in the US for up to 6 months.

    Source(s): I'm from Canada. I'm not on welfare but I know a persons financial state has nothing to do with where they can travel.

    Yes. The U.S. doesn't care about your financial situation when crossing the border. We only care about your criminal record.

    I brought my wife's family here for vacation a few years ago. Both her parents are receiving social insurance.
