FROM: KIM EVANS, DIRECTOR
SUBJECT: CORRECTIONS MADE TO THE SUPPLEMENTAL NUTRITION ASSISTANCE PROGRAM (SNAP) UNCLEAR INFORMATION POLICY
MANUAL REVISION #
1141.005.00
DISCUSSION:
Due to feedback received from the Food and Nutrition Service (FNS), section 1141.005.00 When to Act on Unclear Information of the SNAP policy manual was updated to show unclear information must be:
- Recent (fewer than 60 days old relative to the current month of participation).
Memo IM-06 posted January 19, 2023, incorrectly stated that unclear information is information that is less than 60 days old from the date of receipt.
Also, while correct in 1141.005.00 of the SNAP manual, the memo should have stated:
For information that is older than 60 days, not required to be reported, or not significantly different than information used for the certification, case notes should be made in the eligibility system and the information must be explored at the next mid-certification review or recertification.
NECESSARY ACTION:
- Review this memorandum with appropriate staff.
