23-03 Version of 4.2.2 Regular SNAP Rules

7 CFR 273.11(r)(2)

Regular SNAP rules will test food units against different income and asset limits than the broad based categorical and categorical eligibility rules. Under regular SNAP rules, there are different income and asset limits for EBD and non-EBD food units (see [lottery], 8.1.1.2 Regular SNAP program limits and 8.1.1.3 Asset Limits).

Note	Agencies must use the FoodShare Worksheet (F-16033) to determine eligibility under regular SNAP rules.

EBD

Test all food units that include an EBD member, under regular SNAP rules. Under the regular SNAP rules, these food units have no gross monthly income limit. Their net income must not exceed 100% of the FPL and countable assets cannot exceed the EBD asset limit.

Non-EBD

Under regular SNAP rules, non-EBD food units have a gross monthly income limit of 130% of the FPL. Their net income must not exceed 100% of the FPL and countable assets cannot exceed the non-EBD asset limit.

Countable Assets

All households tested under regular SNAP rules are subject to an asset test (see Section 4.4.1.4 Liquid Assets for a list of countable liquid assets).
