Request for Information: SNAP Income Conversion Factors for Anticipated Income

The Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) seeks input on the use of the current Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) income conversion factors used to anticipate a household's income for the purposes of SNAP eligibility when a household's income is received on a weekly or biweekly basis.

FNS hopes to obtain perspective from state agencies and other stakeholders as it considers how to best balance the flexibilities states are granted in calculating anticipated monthly income under current SNAP regulations, while adhering to the legislative intent of reducing administrative burden on state agencies and removing barriers to eligibility for needy households.
