Alter the time that a Food Stamp Application may be held pending
 

This change would eliminate the cumbersome process of requiring workers to hold an application for which customer has not provided verification for an additional 30 days.  The current process places an additional burden on the eligibility worker, as well as providing an impediment to the receipt of performance bonus funds from the United States Department of Agriculture.
