¿Qué debe saber sobre los nuevos requisitos laborales para el SNAP? – Chicago Tribune

By DAVID A. LIEB and GEOFF MULVIHILL

Because of a disruptor in the United States government, federal food assistance is aimed at loading homes with low supplies. Without an embargo, in the coming months, many beneficiaries will tend to meet new work needs.

The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) provides monthly benefits — totaling $190 per person — to approximately 42 million people nationwide. During the first weeks of November, most of these recipients did not receive their usual allocations during President Donald Trump’s administration, challenging in court the option of using reserves to fund the initiative during the administration’s term.

Next, you need to know about SNAP:

The services will allow you to be available throughout the country

In the first part of the month, the situation was chaotic after the federal government said that SNAP would be implemented without government funding.

Some states fully or partially reimburse beneficiaries’ e-rates with their own resources or federal funds contemplated in court orders. But others found nothing.

The town hall of state governments strengthened the beneficial food organizations, but the sons were grown up and some were on vacation.

As the government surrendered on November 12, many states committed to distributing benefits.

For the markets, all had been charged with aid for the entire month of November in recipients’ purchase invoices or were in the process of working with them, according to a review by The Associated Press. In December, you must receive aid according to your usual schedule.

The most beneficiaries will tend to meet the working conditions

A massive tax and spending law signed into law by Trump in July expanded requirements for most adult SNAP recipients to work voluntarily or participate in work capacity for at least 80 hours per month. This does not mean that it is limited to three months of benefits during a three-year period.

Today, occupational requirements are applied to adults aged 18 to 54 who have physical and mental capabilities and are not dependent on their cargo. The news was extended to people aged 55 to 64 up to fathers up to children aged 14. Additionally, canceling the work activities of nondomestic persons, veterans, and young adults who drop out of the shelter system, and limiting the ability of states to fulfill these requirements in areas with little employment.

Casa Blanca did not enforce work requirements in November, but there are three months on the square to receive SNAP no-work offers in effect in December.

I hope that the new requirements will reduce the monthly promotion of program beneficiaries to at least 2.4 million people in the next 10 years, according to the Oficina de Presupuesto del Congress.

Secretaria de Agricultura is a member of SNAP

Tras el cierre, Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins, who manages the SNAP department, was able to implement the same program. Rollins claimed he was the victim of fraud, including victims who continued to receive benefits and recipients who received multiple aid packages.

The secretary suggested that everyone who receives SNAP should return to applying. But it is not clear that you are suggesting a new method or a reference to what exists, which requires users to certify their entries and other data in periodic form.

An Agriculture Department spokesperson would not say so, but it was noted in a statement that the household recertification processes are part of a plan to eliminate fraud, abuse and cheating.

Under federal law, the town hall must report revenue and basic information each month and return to the entire certification process at least once a year. Full recertification can be done every 24 months in homes where all adults are under 60 or disabled.

But states may require more frequent checks. Last year, 27 states required certain households to be fully verified each month, based on their circumstances, according to a department briefing.
