online services for key low-income benefit programs

ONLINE INFORMATION ABOUT KEY LOW-INCOME BENEFIT PROGRAMS

Links to Policy Manuals, Descriptive Information, and Applications for State Food Stamp, TANF, Child Care, Medicaid, and SCHIP Programs

Virtually all states have made information regarding the five main state-administered low-income

benefit programs — food stamps, Medicaid, SCHIP, TANF and child care — available to the public via the internet. There is significant variation between what online information is provided across states. Some provide a simple description of each program on their agencies websites. Others offer additional information, such as application forms, eligibility screening tools, and policy and procedure manuals used by state agency caseworkers. A few states allow individuals to apply for certain types of benefits online.

Below are links to online state information provided about these benefit programs. Individuals

interested in researching variations in states’ policies or applications may find this resource helpful. This report also provides links to online government benefit screeners and calculators. We have not included benefit screeners or calculators that have been developed and are maintained by non-governmental agencies. There are several important caveats to consider when using these resources. First, similar information may be presented differently across states and states may use different terminology to represent similar concepts. Second, this list was not developed via a comprehensive survey of states and may not be complete. Finally, in some cases it was unclear whether an application for multiple programs, including Medicaid, also served as an application for SCHIP. When it was unclear whether the application served as an SCHIP application, this document does not show the application as including SCHIP.

Please notify Tina Marshall at the Center to update or revise this listing.
