SUBJECT: UPDATES TO SYSTEMATIC ALIEN VERIFICATION FOR ENTITLEMENTS (SAVE) WEBSITE AND SUPPLEMENTAL NUTRITION ASSISTANCE PROGRAM (SNAP) POLICY

MANUAL REVISION #

1105.010.10.20 1105.010.20.40
1105.010.12 1105.097.00
1105.010.15 1105.010.15.15

 

DISCUSSION:

The Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) has provided guidance on updates to Additional Verification procedures and introduced the Cuban/Haitian button for SAVE.

SAVE users now have the ability to make specific verification requests regarding Cuban/Haitian Entrants. After receiving a response to an initial verification request, users would select the Cuban/Haitian Entrant button. SAVE then provides the Upload File button or Drag file to upload box for immigration documentation provided by the individual.

Staff must use the Scan and Upload function when SAVE requests additional documentation to complete a case for non-citizen applicants/participants. Effective immediately, discontinue use of the obsolete U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) Form G-845.

The SNAP manual is updated to reflect these changes. Additionally, the correct address of the National Personnel Record Center, the fax numbers to the Defense Enrollment Eligibility Reporting System (DEERS) Support Office and outdated terms such as EU, immigrant (pertaining to a person), Food Stamps, and references to FAMIS are updated.

 

NECESSARY ACTION:

  • Review this memorandum with appropriate staff.
