MS 6103 WHO SIGNS THE APPLICATION (1)
Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) applications must be signed by an adult or an emancipated child who is a responsible member of the household or an adult authorized representative. By signing an application, the applicant is attesting he/she understands he/she is responsible for ensuring all the information in the application is accurate.
If an individual or their authorized representative signs an application by making a mark (X), the mark must be witnessed by one person, related or unrelated to the individual, who can write.
[For SNAP purposes, individuals who do not wish the Department to contact U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) to verify immigration status are allowed the option of withdrawing the application or participating without that member. See Volume II, MS 5220 for how to consider income of ineligible immigrants.]
