If you are an immigrant, you and your family may be eligible for DTA cash benefits (TAFDC or EAEDC) and SNAP food benefits. Eligibility will depend on your immigration status and other factors. Apply by calling DTA, going to a DTA office, or online at DTAConnect.com

It is safe to apply for and get benefits you or other people you live with (like your children) are eligible for. Learn more here.
