Fax Your Arkansas Benefits Paperwork

The fax line each Arkansas agency publishes for Medicaid and CHIP, SNAP, unemployment, state leave benefits, and state tax, with what that office asks you to put on every page.

Fax Your Documents

10 pages free every month. No credit card.

Where to fax it

One of the 4 Arkansas agencies below publishes a fax line for its documents, 2 run their programs through local offices, so the number is your own county's, and one publishes only a line for a particular form or an appeal. Call the number in the row before you send.

The office asks for your case number on every page. Put it on every page you send, and keep the fax receipt. An office that cannot match a page to a case has to set it aside, and the receipt is what proves you sent it before the deadline.

Call before you send. Agency fax lines change and some stop answering. A short call confirms the number and whether that office is the one holding your case.

Medicaid and ARKids First
Department of Human Services

The Arkansas Department of Human Services asks for the name and date of birth on each item sent in, and asks that a two-sided page be faxed on both sides.

SNAP and Transitional Employment Assistance
Division of County Operations

A faxed Arkansas application for SNAP, TEA or Medicaid must carry the applicant's name, address and signature, and an unsigned one is returned for signature.

The Arkansas Department of Human Services sets the application date for a faxed SNAP, TEA or Medicaid application to the date the fax arrives, and preserves that date even when the fax reaches the wrong office.

Unemployment insurance
Division of Workforce Services

The Arkansas Division of Workforce Services takes the documents a pending unemployment claim needs at the claimant's own local office, the office listed in the state directory of workforce centers.

The Arkansas Division of Workforce Services must receive those documents within ten days, or it does not process the claim.

State income tax
Individual Income Tax Section, Department of Finance and Administration

The Individual Income Tax Section asks that a request for copies of a filed return, and a power of attorney, carry a live signature before it is faxed, mailed or emailed in.

A current-year Arkansas return is not a fax matter: the Department of Finance and Administration takes a return e-filed, mailed or hand delivered, so the section's fax is for documentation rather than a filing.

What the fax costs on FaxTerra

This is what FaxTerra charges to send it. It is not a fee the office charges.

Sending your packet

Every FaxTerra account gets 10 free pages a month, and a page to a US fax number counts as one. A renewal or verification packet of up to 10 pages sends free, with no credit card.

A second packet the same month
$1.99 for 10 pages

Free pages reset on the 1st. If a second packet in the same month takes you past 10 pages, a FaxTerra Lite pack covers it, with no subscription.

Questions

What do I put on every page I fax to a Arkansas agency?

Your case or client number, your name, and your date of birth, unless the row below says the office asks for something else. A page that arrives without a case number has to be matched by hand, which is the slowest path through any agency.

Can I fax a Arkansas agency without a fax machine?

Yes. Upload the pages from your phone or computer, enter the office's fax number, and send. The agency receives it as a fax. Every account gets 10 free pages a month, and a page to a US fax number counts as one.

What if the fax line does not answer?

Call the number in that office's row before you try again. A line that rings and never connects will not start working on a retry, and the office can tell you whether the number changed or whether it wants the document another way.

My row says the program runs through county offices. Where do I fax it?

To your own county office, whose fax is in the state directory linked in that row. Arkansas does not run that program from one address, so there is no statewide number to give you, and a number from another county will not reach your caseworker.

Is this an official Arkansas site?

No. FaxTerra is a fax service. Arkansas and the office you are writing to set the rules and decide your case; every number and requirement here is linked to the agency's own page under official sources.
