You have reached the California Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) Project Office.

Our office does not determine eligibility for benefits and does not issue benefits, and we do not have access to EBT cardholder and case information. Questions about your benefits or about a specific EBT case should be directed to your local county public assistance office.

For county contact information, visit www.cdss.ca.gov/County-Offices.

Apply for EBT benefits in California at www.benefitscal.org.

For answers to most questions about California EBT, click on FAQ. For answers to general questions about EBT, email us at EBT HelpDesk. Please keep in mind, we are only able to respond by email.

For policy-related questions or issues, contact the California Department of Social Services at www.cdss.ca.gov/Contact-Us.
