Chapter 1000

5101:1-2-01 "The Application Process for Ohio Works First, Disability Financial Assistance, and Refugee Cash Assistance."

Rule 5101:1-2-01 describes the application process for Ohio Works First, Disability Financial Assistance and Refugee Cash Assistance. The Office of Family Assistance amended this rule to change the minimum application requirements from "signature and date" to "name, address and signature" in order to align with supplemental nutrition assistance program policy. In addition, the requirement for the county agency to provide a dated receipt for applications and documents submitted by the assistance group has been removed.
