TANF TANF TANF TANF TANF TANF TANF TANF SNAP SNAP SNAP SNAP SNAP SNAP SNAP SNAP will be working 40 hours per week. The SNAP benefits begin on the 1st of each month. The case manager issues Form 2429 requesting verification and, because there was enough information reported, calculates the best estimate of the husband’s wages and budgets the wages to the SNAP case on May 13th. The adverse action period would end on May 31st and the first month to be impacted would be June 1st. 2. Change reported with insufficient information and customer returns necessary verifications within ten (10) days of report date: Customer reports a change in residency on April 30th. He is unsure what his rent will be but is certain it is less than the $300 per month he was paying. He thinks he will be responsible for his utilities but is not certain. On May 1st, the case manager issues Form 2429 requesting necessary verifications within ten (10) days. On May 11th, the customer returns all necessary verifications to support his new rent as $250 per month, which will include his utility expenses. The case manager has until May 23rd to update the SNAP case, and if applicable, the 13-day adverse action period would end on May 31st. 3. Change reported with insufficient information and customer returns necessary verifications beyond ten (10) days of original report date: On November 1st, customer reports she has started a new job. Her SNAP benefits are issued on the 1st of each month. No information is given regarding rate of pay, hours, start date or employer’s name. The case manager issues Form 2429 on November 2nd requesting necessary verifications be returned by November 12th. She provides the verification on November 12th. Because the verification was received timely to the Form 2429 request, but beyond the ten (10) days of the report of change, the case manager should update the SNAP case as soon as possible, but no later than the next month, allowing adverse. Since the customer’s benefits begin on the 1st, the case manager should update by November 17th to allow for adequate adverse to affect the December benefit. 4. Multiple reports of change: Customer reports a job termination on July 15th and provides a statement from his employer to verify this. On July 22nd, customer reports he has moved and will be living with his mother at no cost. On July 31st, same customer calls to report he has a new job making $15 per hour working 35 hours per week, has moved again and now resides with his wife and 2 children. He will also be paying child support as a payroll deduction from his new wages. Each of these changes must be considered separately by the case manager. The case manager has until July 25th to update the loss of employment reported on July 15th since verification was provided at the time of the report. The case manager has until August 1st to act upon the change as reported on July 22nd regarding the change of residence. Since the customer reported another change of residence on July 31st, the case manager must evaluate the new residential change as well as the additional reported changes in wages, household composition, and child support expenses for necessary verifications and act on this change report before August 9th. Note: All changes reported together on July 31st must be verified and updated at the same time, not separately. Allow applicable adverse action.
