Division of Welfare and Supportive Services A-829.21 Eligibility and Payments Manual EMPLOYMENT & TRAINING MTL 12/04 12 Jul 01 Examples of Re-establishing Eligibility

If the individual was disqualified for less than a year, the participant must complete the SNAPET activity they failed to complete before receiving SNAP.

Note: When ending a member's disqualification, update the case with the proper member codes in the computer. An automated notice will be produced with the new allotment including the previously disqualified member. 829.3 Re-establishing Eligibility After the Penalty Period Once the disqualification period has ended, the individual must comply to receive benefits, unless the individual is SNAPET exempt at time of application. Notice of compliance with work program requirements must be given.

Note: If the individual was disqualified and more than one year has passed since the disqualification, the individual must attend an SNAPET Orientation before the disqualification can be lifted. Examples: John Dough did not complete Job Search 1 and was sanctioned in December 2003. As of August 2005, he wishes to reapply for SNAP. Add John Dough to the next available SNAPET Orientation, and if he attends, send a 6009 lifting the sanction.
