To identify WIC approved foods in the store, look for the Connecticut WIC approved shelf tag.
The cashier should scan all of your selected items. Stores cannot limit your choices of WIC approved brands.
Remember to use your WIC benefits before any other form of payment (SNAP, TFA, cash, or credit/debit card).
When available, review the mid-transaction receipt before you confirm yes. This is to ensure that all WIC approved foods come off your WIC balance. If you have paid for an item that should have come off the eWIC card, go to customer service for assistance.
In order to better serve you if you have a problem purchasing or buying an item, ask for a store manager. If you need additional assistance, call the State WIC office at 1-800-741-2142 while you are at the store. If after business hours, email the State WIC office at ctwic@ct.gov. Please provide as many details as possible including date, time, store name, details on items you were trying to purchase, and when possible, include an image of the product and UPC.
