I need a disclosure letter saying I now live in Florida and I need my food stamps. How can I get anywhere without having my number not be accepted because I ain’t in the system yet. I need answers of how to get a hold of someone about this.

A) I understand that you need a disclosure letter to prove your residency in Florida and apply for food stamps. Here are some steps you can take to get the letter and the benefits:

  • To get a disclosure letter, you need to contact the Florida Department of Children and Families (DCF) and request one. You can call them at 1-866-762-2237 or visit their website at Access Florida. You can also visit one of their local offices in person. 
  • To apply for food stamps, you need to fill out an online application on the Access Florida website or submit a paper application at a local DCF office. You will need to provide information about your income, expenses, household members, and assets. You will also need to verify your identity, citizenship, residency, and other eligibility factors.
  • After you submit your application, you will be scheduled for an interview with a DCF worker. You can do the interview by phone or in person. You will need to bring or send copies of your documents, such as your disclosure letter, proof of income, bills, etc. The worker will review your case and determine if you qualify for food stamps.
  • If you are approved for food stamps, you will receive an Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) card in the mail. You can use this card to buy food at authorized stores. The amount of benefits you receive depends on your household size, income, and expenses.

Here are some additional general steps you can take to get a disclosure letter saying you now live in Florida and you need your food stamps:

  1. Contact the Florida Department of Children and Families (DCF) at 1-866-762-2237.
  2. Explain that you have moved to Florida and you need to transfer your food stamps.
  3. The DCF representative will ask you for some information, such as your name, date of birth, and Social Security number.
  4. The DCF representative will then send you a disclosure letter.
  5. Take the disclosure letter to your local DCF office.
  6. At the DCF office, you will need to fill out an application for food stamps.
  7. You will also need to provide some documentation, such as proof of identity, proof of income, and proof of residency.
  8. Once you have completed the application and provided the required documentation, the DCF office will process your application and issue you your food stamp benefits.

If you are having trouble getting in touch with the DCF or if you are having trouble getting your food stamp benefits, you can contact a lawyer for assistance. A lawyer can help you understand your rights and options, and they can advocate for you on your behalf.

Please note that I am not affiliated with the Florida DCF, and I cannot guarantee that you will be able to get a disclosure letter or food stamp benefits immediately. However, by following the steps above, you can increase your chances of getting the help you need.
