ACCESS NYC is a free service that helps New York City residents find out if they qualify for more than 30 city, state, and federal benefit programs. Use ACCESS NYC to apply online for benefits, such as rent increase exemption programs (SCRIE and DRIE) and Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). Residents can also screen for eligibility, learn how to apply, print out application forms, and determine agency locations to visit directly to apply for services.
