TO:  ALL FAMILY SUPPORT OFFICES

FROM:  KIM EVANS, DIRECTOR

SUBJECT:  NEW ONLINE APPLICATIONS FOR FAMILY SUPPORT DIVISION (FSD) INCOME MAINTENANCE (IM) PARTICIPANTS

 

DISCUSSION:

On March 31, 2022, the online applications for Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), Temporary Assistance (TA), and Child Care (CC) available on https://mydss.mo.gov/ will be updated. This update allows participants to complete and submit applications for these programs without requiring a MO Login Account.

To access the SNAP, TA, and CC online applications, participants can select the programs on mydss.mo.gov/apply, then click “Apply Online” on the next page. Participants complete the application, attach available verification, and submit electronically. The participant then goes to a thank you page and has the option of printing or saving a PDF of the application.

The submission page and the copy of the completed application will contain an application document number that the participant can reference when contacting FSD. The application and attached verification will be electronically sent to FSD to be added to the electronic case file and processed by FSD according to application guidelines for each program.

Applications started and saved on a MO Login Account prior to 3/31/22, but not submitted, will require the participant to complete a new application using the new online application process.

 

NECESSARY ACTION:

  • Review this memorandum with appropriate staff.
