Randolph County DSS Office

When applying for benefits, you do not have to bring any item with you. However, you will be asked to provide information while applying. To speed up the process, it would be helpful for you to bring one form of identification (a picture ID if possible) and proof of income with you. This is generally the basic information you will need.

Depending on the program(s) that you apply for, some other documents that may be requested during the interview are:

    Proof of income received in the last three months
    Proof of assets owned:
        Checking/savings account statements
        Life insurance policies
        Registration cards/titles for motor vehicles
        Bonds/stock certificates
        Deeds to property
        Proof of outstanding loans on any property
    Medical bills incurred in the last three months and any old medical bill with an outstanding balance
    Social Security numbers for family members
    Birth Certificates for family members
    Immunization records for children
    Proof of household expenses - rent, utilities, etc.
    Health/Hospital Insurance identification cards or policies for family members
