You can download an official copy of the DTA SNAP Food Stamp Benefits Application from the DTA Food Assistance web site, by clicking on one of the links below. The application is available in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. There is also a simplified application for elderly applicants.
These SNAP food stamp applications are fill-in PDF forms with complete instructions on how to apply, including a list of the proofs you need. You should fill out the form from your computer, then print it and sign it. Your application does not have to be complete when you send it in, but it must have your name, address (if you have one), and signature.
After you print and sign the application, you should mail, fax, or bring it, along with copies of your documents, to your local DTA office:
After the DTA receives your application, they will call you for an interview. If they have any questions about your answers, or if you left anything blank, they will talk to you about it then.
Remember that if you are eligible for SNAP food stamps, your benefits will start from the date the DTA receives your application. You should file your application as soon as possible.
