Food Stamp Action
 

We all receive bank statements, income ,utility bills etc., within a 30 day timeframe. Items needed for evaluation of Food Stamp eligibility. A individual that needs food will provide all these items within 30 days. The various different timeframes for benefits increases confusion to clients and need to be in line with one another. If someone has not provided needed verifications within 30 days the case needs to be denied. The person can reapply at any time.
