Lawful Presence

Beginning July 1, 2025, Idaho law requires EIPH to verify the lawful presence of those applying for public benefits through our agency.

Programs affected by this change include: 

  • WIC
  • Clinical Services
  • Licenses for food establishments
  • Licenses for septic pumper and installing services

We verify lawful presence using: 

  • Photo Identification
  • Social Security Number
  • Signed attestation that client is a legal resident of the United States

Call our main office for more information.
