A duplicate application:

is an application filed after another application has already been filed;

does not include a request for programs different from programs requested on the initial application submitted;

does not include a request for programs different from programs currently received by the applicant; and

is not needed for a redetermination of any active program.

Example : If a household submits an application for SNAP on January 2 and later submits one or more additional applications for SNAP that are different from the one the household filed on January 2, and are not needed for a redetermination of any active program, the additional application submitted is considered a duplicate application.
