When the pending Families First or SSI applications are approved after the SNAP application has been denied but is still within 60 days, the caseworker should update the SNAP application with any changes that have occurred since the last interview. A new interview is not required. The household’s benefits should then be pro-rated from the first day the Families First or SSI benefits are payable (usually the date of the FF or SSI application), or the date of the original SNAP application, whichever is later. When a Categorically Eligible Household’s FF or SSI benefits are Terminated If a categorically eligible household’s Families First or SSI benefits are terminated, the household’s continuing eligibility should be determined based on normal SNAP policy and procedures for non-categorically eligible households.
