SNAP certification
 

Keep the 12/24 cert periods and IR as is.  Tighten reporting requirements. Too much time is wasted trying to decide if it is a required reporting item; allow our clients to be responsible adults.  If a client is going to be untruthful it makes not difference how often or what must be reported. 

The current situation with 12/24 month cert periods works for most and it keeps the client from spending valuable resouces to attend an interview.  Most in our area do not like telephone interviews.
