* The half-month benefit amount is calculated by dividing the full month amount by two and rounding up to the nearest whole dollar amount.

d. For eligible households, the BPS must complete the Internal Action Form for Disaster Benefits to authorize the issuance of the EBT card. See Appendix I for a copy of the form.

M. DISASTER PROGRAM BENEFIT PERIOD

1. The benefit period for the D-SNAP is not based on a calendar month as it is for the regular program. The benefit period is determined by the disaster benefit period authorized by FNS. The period will be either a half-month (15 days) or a full month (30 days).

2 The full amount of accessible liquid resources must be counted regardless of whether the length of the disaster benefit period is a half month or a full month.
