NOTICE:

To improve your online experience with DSS, we will be performing system maintenance this weekend. Starting at 8:00 a.m. on Saturday, May 16, ConneCT.ct.gov, MyDSS.ct.gov and our Chatbot will be unavailable until maintenance is complete.  We apologize for the inconvenience. 

DSS benefits have changed due to the federal budget reconciliation bill (H.R.1). Find out how it will impact you on our website, which answers questions about work requirements and exemptions for SNAP and HUSKY (Medicaid).
