At a clinic
What to bring, and how long it takes
Clinics are first come, first served unless they say booking required. Most people are done within an hour.
Bring papers
Any notice, summons, letter, deed or tax bill. Photos on your phone are fine.
Photo ID
Helpful but not required to talk to a lawyer. Record clinics need it to file.
Income
A recent pay stub or benefits letter, or just tell us. We won't turn you away for forgetting.
Kids
Bring them. There's a table of crayons at every clinic and nobody minds the noise.
Access
Every clinic site is step-free. Tell us ahead if you need an interpreter or ASL.
Getting there
In Jackson, JTRAN Route 3 stops at Lynch and Dalton, half a block from the door.
