TANF and SNAP

The following sources continue to be the preferred methods of wage verification if they are available without having to pend the EDG to obtain them:

the most recent consecutive check stub(s); or

Form H1028 , Employment Verification.

If these preferred sources of verification are not available during the interview, or when processed if no interview is required, and it would be necessary to pend for wage verification, the TWC quarterly wage information should be used as verification as explained below.

Yes– Continue No – Pend for other wage verification Is the person still employed by the employer listed on the most recent TWC quarter? Yes– Continue No – Pend for other wage verification Is the person's pay rate the same now as it was for each month of the most recent quarter reported to TWC? Yes– Continue No – Pend for other wage verification After discussion with the person, do they agree that the result is representative of anticipated future gross wages per pay period? Note: Convert the income to the frequency the person receives the income before discussing with them whether the earnings shown in TWC records are representative of current and/or future earnings. Yes – Use TWC wage record as verification No – Pend for other wage verification
