Abstract: This collection requiring State agencies to verify that systems are in place to comply with associated regulations governing SNAP. FNS require that State agencies disqualify an individual who has committed an intentional program violation (IPV). Additionally, it requires that these individuals “be disqualified in accordance with the disqualification periods and procedures and requires State agencies to report information concerning each individual disqualified for an IPV to the disqualified recipient database, the electronic Disqualified Recipient System (eDRS), and to use eDRS data to determine the eligibility of individual applicants prior to certification. FNS also require that each State agency establish a system to verify and ensure that benefits are not issued to individuals who are deceased, and that data source is the Social Security Administration’s (SSA) Death Master File.
