Volume 2 - Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) MS 2710 – R. 6/15/26 – OMTL – 643 Method of Application

[Residents of a Group Living Arrangement (GLA) are certified using one or both of the following application processes:

A. If the resident applies through the use of the facility's Authorized Representative (AR), their eligibility is determined as a one-person household.

B. If the resident applies on their own behalf, the household size is determined in accordance with MS 2010.

C. If more than one resident applies as part of the same SNAP household, deduct the SNAP maximum allotment amount for a one-person household from the room and board payment for each person. Consider the remaining balance as a shelter expense for the household.

While certifying these households, apply the same provisions that apply to all other applicant households. Prior to certifying any residents for SNAP, verify that the GLA is certified by the appropriate State agency(s). GLA’s must be public or private and non-profit.]
