How can JFS cancel my foodstamps right after I tested positive for cov-it They have left me without anything to eat. And they don't care.

Katrina Walker | Feb 21, 2022
leader of the 10 commands | Feb 21, 2022

I would ask for a supervisor on this and possibly get the law involved. I don't think they can really take your food stamps away if you tested positive

Do those who qualify get half of March benefits in feb? Then rest on assigned date?

Cam Lines | Sep 20, 2019
Licking County Job and Family Services | Sep 20, 2019

Due to the early issuance of February benefits caused by the federal government shutdown, Ohio will be issuing HALF of March SNAP benefits on February 22nd to eligible individuals and families. The remaining HALF of March SNAP benefits will be issued on each customer's standard load/issuance date in March. It is important to keep in mind that, while issued early, these benefits are intended to last through March. Please contact the agency at 740.670.8988 with any questions or concerns. Thanks, LCJFS
