Mississippi TANF & Welfare Offices
Mississippi's Department of Human Services runs TANF out of 86 offices in 85 cities, and caseworkers there are also the ones who schedule the mandatory eligibility interview after a Quick Apply submission comes in. To qualify, a three-person household's gross income generally can't exceed $1,074 a month — a threshold that rises by roughly $224 for each additional household member. Applicants who don't finish online can request a paper application from their county office instead, and any follow-up documents can be uploaded directly at ea-upload.mdhs.ms.gov. The program traces back to 1996 and still requires every work-eligible adult to register with Mississippi Works and complete a substance abuse screening before benefits are approved.
This site is an independent, non-government TANF directory and isn't affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by any state or federal government agency. Always verify details directly with the official agency before visiting or applying.
