WORK REGISTRANT DATA The SNAP general work requirements are described at 7 CFR 273.7(a). Individuals who do not meet a federal exemption from the general work requirements, as listed in 7 CFR 273.7(b)(1), are subject to the general work requirement and must register for work. In accordance with 7 CFR 273.7(c)(10), the State agency must submit to FNS the number of work registrants in the State as of October 1st. This information is submitted on the first quarter E&T Program Activity Report (FNS-583). Describe the process the State agency uses to count all work registrants in the State as of the first day of the new fiscal year (October 1). DSS’ eligibility system ImpaCT, has a reporting feature that identifies the number of unduplicated work registrants receiving SNAP as of October 1st each year. Provide information about how work registrant data is pulled from the eligibility system, including the date the data is pulled. Work registrant data is pulled from the "Reports" menu in the ImpaCT eligibility system. REP-026: Work Registration Report is generated monthly for the prior month on the 2nd day of each current month. How are work registrants identified in the eligibility system? Work Registrants are identified in the ImpaCT eligibility system on a monthly basis through the Eligibility Determination Result page--- SNAP- EDG Summary details. This page identifies if the individual is a mandatory participant, or if they are exempt from work registration. This information is determined based on the individual's age and any exemptions that may be coded throughout the eligibility system. Describe measures taken to prevent duplicate counting of work registrants within the federal fiscal year. The ImpaCT work registrant report only captures unduplicated work registrants. The work registrant reports available in our integrated eligibility system provide unduplicated counts. No filters are needed, as this is a function of the system. Work registrants are only counted once in a federal fiscal year. 1/28/26, 11:04 AM State Plan CT FY26 - Original Submission https://dam-fns.usda.gov/sites/default/files/microsite/snapet-ctfy26stateplan//index.html 38/96
