If the household does not receive the payment with at least 10 days remaining in the month, the household must report within 10 days from receipt of payment.

These recipients are subject to the change reporting levels listed in the Simplified Reporting Notice they are sent, even if the Federal Poverty Level changes during their certification period.

If a SNAP household experiences a change between the application interview and the date of the notice of eligibility, members must report the change within ten days of the notice of approval.

RE-DERMINATION DUE TO CHANGES 5.5 Example 2 Jeremiah Spricket is a SNAP recipient who is subject to simplified reporting. Jeremiah received an increase in his wages that exceed the 130 FPL on September 26. Jeremiah did not receive the payment with at least 10 days remaining in the month. This means, he must report the change within 10 days from receipt of the payment. Therefore, Jeremiah must report the income change before October 7th, which is within 10 days (September 27th to October 7th) from receipt of payment.
