As of July 1, 2025, Idaho law requires CDH to verify the lawful presence of those applying for public benefits through our agency.
The programs impacted by this change are:
WIC applicants who are not on Medicaid, SNAP, or TAFI
Clinic services for which a sliding scale is used
Licenses and permits for food establishments
Licenses and permits for septic onsite, pumper and installer services
You can review the policy here and then complete the form below to verify your lawful presence online or you can visit one of our CDH offices to confirm in person.
