Have been trying to get tech support for gateway and no one answers. Can't log into my account because I need my password reset, but can't get tech support to answer and a call back isn't an option for tech support. Case workers do not have the ability to reset passwords. Ridiculous. If you can't get in touch with tech support, someone else should have the ability. Ms. Smith said she was giving me a "one time code" to enter when she transferred me, but she just put me thru the automated system again. I guess she thought I was dumb enough to think she was helping. I spoke with Mrs. Anderson, ID 35370, that told me Ms. Smith didn't have the ability to reset passwords. Figured that once I was back into the automated system.

If my husband's 17 year old son is living with us and my husband was arrested last night for attempting to harm me. Who do I contact to have his son removed from my home and returned to his mother? I do not have guardianship over his son

At age 17 you can legally have him evicted. Although you have to go through court and have issue a notice. However being these kids state of mind & how they seek violent revenge over emotional stress. May I recommend you nurture the young man to NOT follow in his father's poor decision making footsteps. Going down the rabbit hole, throwing the teenager into a do die, hand to mouth living situation, could ruin both your lives. So easily we're losing to the elements of street life. If you can take his hand, walk him into McDonald's, Family Dollar, KFC, you know tell him "You are my step son I want you to be great & here's how WE gonna make a foundation for you to be better." I wouldn't pin his father's bad choices on him nor hold it against him nor throw it in his face. This could be the universe ,God, testing you. What you put out you will get back. Karma is real so keep love 1st. ONE

You Don't have to have children. Especially during covid times--im sure they will help someone who's food insecure. If not they will tell you why. Just apply.

Do I need to reapply for Medicaid?

Furman Faduma | Oct 7, 2021
James D. Brown, Sr. | Oct 7, 2021

Have you applied for medicaid here in Georgia before! If so, you need to contact them and reactivate your case number. If you had Medicaid approval from another state try having your medicaid case number transferred to Georgia. If none of what I said works, then you will have to reapply .

What happens if u don't report to DEFACS

Anthony Brown | Oct 7, 2020
Eric | Oct 7, 2020

Depends on what you are not reporting. Not reporting income could lead to your benefits being terminated and or a fraud investigation. Not reporting abuse could lead to jail if you are a mandated reporter.

I lost my Medicaid card. Do I get it from my local DFACS office or do I get it from Social Security? My question is about a replacement Medicaid card.

Alvin Funderburk | Oct 7, 2020
Tracey Hardaway | Oct 7, 2020

Local DFACS. Social Security is unrelated to Medicaid- directly.

BJ “Bountifuljoi” P | Oct 8, 2019

You need to find your county Office, this office is the state level and is responsible for oversight of local offices.

I got approved for fs on Oct. 15 and here it is Nov. 13 and still have not received my card yet. Anyone have any way of finding someone that can help?

Christopher Bailey | Oct 8, 2019

Call the EBT customer service number and enter your zipcode WRONG (2times), that will forward your call to a LIVE person, for real. Remember, enter your zipcode wrong at least 2 times and you'll be connected to a human not a voicemail or automated system.
