Share the Benefits Screener

Know someone who might be missing out on help they are entitled to? Build a link that opens the free eligibility check already set to their state and their situation, so they do not have to explain themselves twice. Then send it however you like.

• No personal information is needed — not yours, and not theirs. There is nothing to sign up for, and the link you create contains only a state and a situation, never anyone’s details.
• It is free, and it stays free.
• It ends at the official government application site for each programme — the state or federal agency that actually takes the application.
• It works on a phone.

Build your link

What the person you share with will see

A few questions about their situation — not about programme names, which is the part most people cannot answer. Then a list of which of 14 federal and state programmes are worth applying for, what documents to gather, and a direct link to the official government site for each one. Nothing they enter is stored or sent anywhere, and they are never asked to create an account.

Run an organisation?

Food banks, churches, libraries, disability and veterans organisations and family nonprofits can use the same tool with their own link. See the free tool for organisations.

GlobalBenefits.org is not a government agency. Nothing here is an eligibility decision. The screener shows which programmes are worth applying for; only the government agency that runs a programme can decide your case. We link to the official application site for each one so you can apply directly with them.
