Contact Us Link on Screener Results Page
Requests submitted via the "Contact Us" link on the Screener Results Page to change an address, update contact information, or opt-out of Summer EBT will be automatically processed in the Integrated Eligibility System (IES) as long as the customer confirms their current address and it matches IDHS records in IES.
