The Mississippi Department of Human Services (MDHS), Division of Field Operations (DFO), now has the capability to offer limited internet services through a secure online account known as “My MDHS Account.”

The service will allow you to receive, view, and print the following information about your Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), Disaster SNAP (DSNAP), Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), and/or TANF Work Program (TWP) cases online:

  • The status of your SNAP, DSNAP, and/or TANF cases;
  • The benefit history and availability of your SNAP, DSNAP, and TANF benefits, and TWP supportive service payments, if applicable; and
  • All of your SNAP, DSNAP, TANF, and TWP notices.

Exception: All claim overpayment related tax offset notices will continue to be received through regular mail.
