Requiring the department of social services to create web forms for benefits and services applications.

A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to requiring the department of social services to create web forms for benefits and services applications

This bill would require the Department of Social Services (DSS) to create web forms for any applications that must be completed by an individual to apply for benefits and services through DSS. The web forms would allow applicants to directly input information and electronically sign applications online. DSS would be required to continue to accept paper applications and forms that mailed or delivered in person.
