WORK REGISTRANT DATA The SNAP general work requirements are described at 7 CFR 273.7(a). Individuals who do not meet a federal exemption from the general work requirements, as listed in 7 CFR 273.7(b)(1), are subject to the general work requirement and must register for work. In accordance with 7 CFR 273.7(c)(10), the State agency must submit to FNS the number of work registrants in the State as of October 1st. This information is submitted on the first quarter E&T Program Activity Report (FNS-583). Describe the process the State agency uses to count all work registrants in the State as of the first day of the new fiscal year (October 1). Oregon uses the Work Registrant definition described in 7 CFR 273.7(a) and in the Oregon Administrative Rule (OAR) 461-130-0310. To gather the number of Work Registrants in the State as of the 1st day of October, the criterion in the above rules is applied to all open SNAP cases. Individual data details are gathered for anyone who is 16 or 17 and head of household on the SNAP case, or for those who are 18 through 59 years old. Information includes exemption status such as: student status, disability status, pregnancy information, parenting information, if providing care for a disabled individual, and if the participant is engaged in drug or alcohol treatment rehabilitation program(s). Provide information about how work registrant data is pulled from the eligibility system, including the date the data is pulled. Oregon uses the Work Registrant definition described in 7 CFR 273.7(a) and in the Oregon Administrative Rule (OAR) 461-130-0310. To gather the number of work registrants in the state as of the 1st day of October, the criterion in the above rules is applied to all open SNAP cases on the evening of September 30th taking into account all cases which will remain open/active on October 1st and excluding any cases expiring, closing, or terminating on September 30th. To gather the number of new work registrants in the state at the end of each quarter, the criterion in the above rules is applied to all open SNAP cases and pulled on the 6th of each month. All individuals who were counted in previous data pulls for the FFY are excluded, to count only the number of new work registrants in the previous month. How are work registrants identified in the eligibility system? Each individual who meets the definition described in 7 CFR 273.7(a) of a Work Registrant or exempt Work Registrant, has the information displayed on their Individual Summary Screen in the ONE System, alongside their ABAWD status and SNAP benefit status. Describe measures taken to prevent duplicate counting of work registrants within the federal fiscal year. In Oregon’s ONE system, Work Registrant data is pulled using individual level information, to prevent any duplication of participants between reporting months and fiscal years. Each month’s individual level data is compared with previous month’s individual level data to exclude those already counted individuals, therefore preventing duplicate counting. 1/29/26, 9:33 AM State Plan OR FY26 - Original Submission https://dam-fns.usda.gov/sites/default/files/microsite/snapet-orfy26stateplan//index.html 77/378
