The USDA announces adjusted income eligibility guidelines to be used by state agencies in determining the income eligibility of persons applying for WIC.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Food and Nutrition Administration is conducting a study titled WIC Tribal Organizations and U.S. Territories.
This notice sets forth the interpretation that the U.S. Department of Agriculture uses for the term “Federal public benefit” as used in Title IV of the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996. In doing so, this notice supersedes any prior interpretation in any notice or other document issued by any USDA agency. This notice also describes and preliminarily identifies the USDA programs that provide “Federal public benefits” within the scope of PRWORA.
USDA proposes to remove barriers to online ordering and internet-based transactions in WIC through this rulemaking.
