Submission of Claim Payment Activity to USDA, FNS
The FNS-209 Report (Status of Claims against Households) is an automated report and is run quarterly. The report is utilized to reflect all claims activities during a quarter and reflects all the payments made during the quarter. SNAP benefits received as a claim payment shall be recorded in the automated system and any corrections that need to be made to payments are made through the automated system. The report is available for review from the first of the month immediately following the end of the quarter and continues to be available through the last working day of the quarter. A consolidated final report is available to be printed by local offices following the last working day of the quarter. This FS-209 report is run quarterly even if the local office has not collected any payments or other claims activities. The local office shall not be required to submit Form FS-209 if the material on the automated system FS-209 is accurate and complete for that local office.
