General Information
Action Summary The purpose of the proposed action is to alter the length of time an application for food stamp benefits may be held pending before processing. Federal regulations allow states an option to deny applications after 30 days if the local department of social services is unable to process the application or to hold the application pending for an additional 30-day period. The State Board of Social Services would like to deny applications after 30 days instead of holding the application pending for an additional 30-day period before disposing of the applications.
