FORMS MANUAL REVISION #37 : IM-31F, INSTRUCTIONS FOR MAKING YOUR FOOD STAMP APPLICATION AND FOOD STAMP RIGHTS AND INSTRUCTIONS NOTICE OF EXPIRATION MAILING DATE CHANGE (FAMIS) |
| DISCUSSION: |
| Effective with the January 2003 mailing
of the Notice of Expiration (NOE) being sent to food stamp Eligibility
Units (EUs), form IM-31F, Instructions for Making Your Food Stamp Application
and Food Stamp Rights will be enclosed with the automated NOE and food
stamp application both for FAMIS and Legacy NOE mailings. This form
cannot be ordered by county staff for use.
The text in this form is the same as forms IM-31B, Your Rights As A Food Stamp Applicant/Participant, and IM-31C, Instructions For Making Your Food Stamp Application. The creation of this form generates a more efficient mail sorting method thus providing faster processing and mailing. Forms IM-31B/C are NOT obsolete. These forms continue to be used by the county office to provide application information and food stamp rights to applicants who either complete the food stamp application in the county office or the county mails the food stamp application to the EU. NOTICE OF EXPIRATION (FAMIS) Effective immediately for FAMIS counties, the automated NOEs are generated on the 15th of each month. When a household has a short certification in which an NOE is not system generated on the 15th, the FA-150, Claimant Action Notice, generates the NOE with the case approval information. The county office is responsible for mailing a food stamp application, IM-31B and IM-31C to the household. |
