Permanent custody of 2 grand children can i receive any welfare type benefits? Montgomery co. Ohio?

Yes. Apply for aid to dependent children or whatever it is called in your state. The state will pay yo monthly. Unless the parents are in prison Ohio will go after them for reimbursement. The state will also give you insurance for them if you don't have it through your employer.

I live in NY, but from what I've learned over the years, In Most states, You can apply for food stamps and Medical Benifits.
As for cash assistance, they will go by all the income that you have comming in for your family.
Also if you've got permanent custody, you should still find out if the father OR mother may still be charged with having to pay some type of child support. You may be entitled to something from them too.
Good luck and Bless you for taking on such a hard job of raising your grandchildren.....

To get welfare it depends on your income, but if you are low enough then yes and if not, you still may qualify for food stamps. I know regardless of your income, if your grandchildren's parents qualified for WIC, you can get it too for them. Thats how it works where I live. Because my niece got temporarily placed with my uncle who had lots of money but they told my sister the uncle can still get wic for my niece.

Possibly. Depends on your income, if you have legal custody, and the circumstances under which you gained custody. Go to Job & Family Services on Edwin C Moses, and fill out the application. Be prepared to spend some time. The initial intake can take a couple of hours.

It depends on your financial situation. Ask about kinship care benefits, they aren't much, but when you're not getting any support for them every little bit helps.
