SCREENING FOR WORK REGISTRATION State agency eligibility staff must screen for federal exemptions from work registration, per 7 CFR 273.7(a). Describe how the State agency screens applicants to determine if they are work registrants. During the application process for SNAP, the ONE eligibility system screens applicants for Work Registrant status and each of the allowed exemptions based on logic developed by ODHS Policy Teams and the information put in the system by the individual and Eligibility Worker. Prior to determining eligibility, during the interview, the Eligibility Worker asks questions and documents the answers in the ONE system. If there is incomplete or unclear information provided by the individual, clarification is requested to determine Work Registrant status and if the individual is eligible for any exemptions. How does the State agency work register non-exempt individuals? Upon signing of the SNAP application, the SNAP applicant is indicating they are registered to work. In the ONE System, the applicant is deemed as a work registrant, and they are reviewed for compliance with general work requirements if they are not exempt.
