OLGT 2021-46: SNAP: Interim Reports Sent to COVID-19 Recertification Households

The Department has received an extension on the waiver of the SNAP Interim Report (IR) requirement, which was originally set to expire on June 30, 2021. This waiver will continue until further notice. Until the waiver expires, most SNAP households will remain subject to the COVID-19 recertification procedures outlined in 2020-82.

Due to a previously coded end date of June 30, 2021, BEACON automatically issued IRs for July to SNAP households that are temporarily waived from the IR requirement. This happened because the system is programmed to send the IR form to applicable households, 45 days before the end of the first half of their certification period. However, these households should not have received an IR form for July and will not be required to complete and submit the IR because of the continued application of the waiver.
