SNAP
The actual shelter costs are budgeted for a home excluding utility costs that is unoccupied because of employment or training, illness, including receiving medical treatment, natural disaster or casualty loss such as fire, flood or state of disrepair, if the:
household intends to return to the home;
current occupants are not claiming the same shelter costs the owner is claiming for SNAP purposes; and
home is not leased or rented.
The household may claim both the shelter costs of its current home and the cost of the unoccupied home, and a single utility standard, if eligible for one, but no more than the maximum excess shelter deduction, if applicable.
