The Social Security Administration (SSA) and the Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) have news to share! SSA recently made changes to the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program, making it stronger and simpler for more than a quarter of a million older adults and people with disabilities. These changes could potentially increase SSI payments and allow more people to become eligible for the program.
This document informs the public that FNS is withdrawing the proposed rule titled Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program: Disaster Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program that published in the Federal Register on May 10, 2016.
FNS updated the forms and burden estimates based on consultations with SNAP-Ed state and implementing agency partners, other federal agencies, and users of the forms.
This federal interagency letter publishes the latest guidance and resources that clarify how existing provisions within federal programs can be better aligned for postsecondary access and completion.
