SCREENING FOR WORK REGISTRATION State agency eligibility staff must screen for federal exemptions from work registration, per 7 CFR 273.7(a). Describe how the State agency screens applicants to determine if they are work registrants. Eligibility workers screen all SNAP applicants at application and renewal to determine if the customer is a work registrant or if they meet an exemption from work registration. In addition to application and recertification, the work registration status is reviewed at interim changes and periodic reports, if there is a change that impacts a customer's work registration. At the eligibility determination interview, all applicable work requirements for SNAP are discussed, and the Consolidated Work Requirement Notice is sent to the work registrant to explain the basic work requirements for SNAP. The Consolidated Work Requirement Notice is system-generated and is mailed to the participant at SNAP case approval. All work registration exemptions are listed in the SNAP Policy manual, which eligibility workers refer to when determining if a customer is a Work Registrant. The Oral Work Requirements script is also used during customer interviews as a guide to determine if they qualify for an exemption from work registration or are work registrants. How does the State agency work register non-exempt individuals? A non-exempt individual registers for work when signing the SNAP application. At what point in the certification process does the State agency provide the written explanation of the applicable work requirements? Select all that apply.
