WHAT IS A FILING DATE?
QUESTION: What is a "filing" date?

ANSWER: A filing date starts the process and timeline for benefits. Applicants establish a filing date once an application is submitted and received by the Department of Human Services (DHS). Applicants can submit a completed application or fill out the first two pages, only providing their name, address and signature. An applicant's benefits will be calculated from that filing date if eligibility is determined.
