10 pages free every month. No credit card.
Where to fax it
One of the 4 South Carolina agencies below publishes a fax line for its documents, one runs its program through local offices, so the number is your own county's, and 2 publish only lines 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.
Healthy Connections keeps coverage running once a review form arrives and sends a notice with the decision when the review finishes; an application itself generally takes up to 45 days.
A South Carolina county Department of Social Services office asks that verification sent by fax or email carry the SNAP or TANF case number, which is printed in the top right corner of every notice.
South Carolina starts SNAP benefits within thirty days of the application, and within seven days for a household that needs expedited benefits.
A South Carolina unemployment appeal must carry the claimant's name, their Claimant ID or Social Security number, and a handwritten signature, which the department will not accept without.
A South Carolina unemployment appeal is due within ten calendar days of the determination's mailing date, extending to the next business day when the tenth falls on a weekend or holiday.

What the fax costs on FaxTerra
This is what FaxTerra charges to send it. It is not a fee the office charges.
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.
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 South Carolina 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 South Carolina 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. South Carolina 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 South Carolina site?
No. FaxTerra is a fax service. South Carolina 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.
