If you have a CalWORKs and CalFresh renewal due, use the Form SAWS 2 Plus to complete your renewal for both programs. Blank CF 37 and SAWS 2 Plus Forms are also available at Alameda County Social Services Agency offices.
In order to keep receiving CalFresh benefits, you will need to submit mandatory reports. The Semi-Annual Report or SAR7 is due 6 months after your application date. The Recertification Report is due 12 months after your application date.
Annual Report (SAR 7 or 'Periodic Report') is a form that updates your county about changes to your situation. You must fill it out 6 months after you apply, even if you don't have changes to report. The county will use it to determine if you're still eligible for CalFresh.
