Maryland SNAP Manual: 405 Social Security Numbers 1
Apply for a social security number for any household member without one.
Income - Count a prorated share of the disqualified member’s income as income to the remaining household members. Determine the prorated share by first subtracting any allowable exclusions, then dividing the remainder evenly among the household members, including the disqualified member. All but the disqualified member’s share is counted as available to the household.
Social security numbers provided at application must be verified through the Social Security Administration. Do not delay the certification of an otherwise eligible household solely to validate a household member’s SSN, even if the 30-day processing period has not expired. As soon as all other eligibility requirements are met, except for verifying the SSNs, certify the household. Once verified, make a permanent annotation to the case file to prevent unnecessary re-verification in the future.
