Actions Resulting From Changes in Household Circumstances; Simplified Reporting System (SRS); SNAP, JPI

In the SNAP program and JPI, benefits may be changed for an individual using SRS — based on information obtained other than through the Interim Change Report — only as follows:

(1)

The benefit level is increased if the information demonstrates the individual is eligible for greater benefits.

(2)

The benefits are closed or reduced if any of the following subsections apply:

(a)

The household requests a closure of benefits.

(b)

The action is based on information that is verified upon receipt. Information is considered verified upon receipt if:

(A)

It is not questionable and the individual making the report has first-hand knowledge of the information reported; or

(B)

Verification is provided with the reported change in accordance with OAR 461-115-0651 (Required Verification and When to Verify; SNAP).

(c)

The individual reports information that results in loss of eligibility (see OAR 461-001-0000 (Definitions for Chapter 461)).

(d)

The individual reports financial group (see OAR 461-110-0530 (Financial Group)) income exceeding the SNAP program countable (see OAR 461-001-0000 (Definitions for Chapter 461)) income limit.

(3)

The Department acts on information reported through computer matches when the Interim Change Report is processed, when the individual is recertified, or when the monthly match with the Department of Corrections indicates a member is incarcerated.
