Here's what you can expect after applying for WIC in Ohio:

Initial Processing:
    Verification: Your information will be verified, including income, residency, and health status. This might involve reviewing your documents and conducting health screenings.
    Decision Timeline: Processing times can vary depending on the clinic and individual circumstances. It could take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks. You might receive a notification by phone, mail, or online portal.
    Outcome: You'll be notified of the decision - either approval or denial. If approved, you'll receive an EBT card to use at authorized WIC vendors.

Upon Approval:
    Orientation: Attend an orientation session to learn about program benefits, food packages, using the EBT card, and accessing additional services.
    Certification Period: Your initial certification period will likely be six months. You'll need to recertify regularly (usually every six months) to continue receiving benefits.
    Clinic Appointments: Schedule regular appointments with your WIC clinic for health screenings, nutrition counseling, breastfeeding support, and monitoring your child's development.

Benefits:
    Food Packages: Receive vouchers or EBT funds to purchase specific WIC-approved healthy foods like milk, cereal, eggs, fruits, vegetables, and infant formula.
    Health Services: Access health screenings, immunizations, referrals to health care providers, and nutrition counseling.

    Other Services: Depending on your clinic, you might benefit from additional services like cooking classes, parenting workshops, and referrals to other social service programs.
