WORK REGISTRANT DATA The SNAP general work requirements are described at 7 CFR 273.7(a). Individuals who do not meet a federal exemption from the general work requirements, as listed in 7 CFR 273.7(b)(1), are subject to the general work requirement and must register for work. In accordance with 7 CFR 273.7(c)(10), the State agency must submit to FNS the number of work registrants in the State as of October 1st. This information is submitted on the first quarter E&T Program Activity Report (FNS-583). Describe the process the State agency uses to count all work registrants in the State as of the first day of the new fiscal year (October 1). The process is described in detail in the responses that follow. Provide information about how work registrant data is pulled from the eligibility system, including the date the data is pulled. Any individuals receiving FoodShare on October 1st of the FFY and subjected to the systematic work registration process (work registrant flag set to 'Yes') will be included in Line#1 (FNS 583 report) counts.
