Montgomery, Al (WDNews) – The Alabama Department of Human Resources (DHR) has scheduled a temporary outage for the state’s EBT system to implement updates and improvements.
The system will be offline from 10 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 7, until 6 a.m. on Sunday, Dec. 8. During this time, users will be unable to access EBT services.
According to Alabama DHR, the outage is necessary to introduce new features for clients and enhance security measures. The update follows reports of widespread EBT fraud earlier this year, where many residents had their benefits stolen.
This upgrade aims to prevent similar incidents and provide a more secure system for Alabama families.
