Family Support and Assistance encourages use of MNbenefits for document submission

MNbenefits is a mobile-friendly benefits site that is used to securely submit documents for public assistance programs in Family Support and Assistance. Program applicants, enrollees, and their Olmsted County workers will find the MNbenefits system to be a user-friendly option versus dropping off documents in person or emailing them. 

How to upload documents through MNbenefits

1.    Navigate to MNbenefits.mn.gov. 
2.    Navigate to the bottom of the page and find the Upload documents button. 
3.    Use that button and select Olmsted County as the agency to which you would like to send documents. Then, select Continue.
4.    As prompted, fill is as much identification information as you can so your documents can be routed appropriately. Only name is required, but other identifying information such as date of birth, social security number, phone number, email address, and case number are recommended. 
5.    Take photos on your phone, select files stored on your device, or take a screenshot from your device and select Continue.
6.    Upload documents. Counties most commonly request identification, paystubs from jobs, and proof of rent or shelter. Select Submit my documents. 
7.    Select Submit and finish or add more documents.
8.    Write down your confirmation number.
