In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, this notice invites the general public and other public agencies to comment on this proposed information collection. This is a revision of a currently approved collection.
The FNS-380-1, Quality Control Review Schedule (QCRS), was developed by the Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) for state use to collect both QC data and case characteristics for SNAP and to serve as the comprehensive data entry form for SNAP QC reviews. The legislative basis for the QC system is in Section 16 of the Food and Nutrition Act of 2008, as amended (the Act). Part 275, Subpart C, of SNAP regulations implements the legislative mandates found in Section 16. The regulatory basis for the QC reporting requirements is provided by 7 CFR 275.14(d) and 7 CFR 275.21. State agencies are required to perform QC reviews for SNAP. The information needed to complete this form is obtained from the SNAP case record through state agency quality control findings. The information is used to monitor and reduce errors, develop policy strategies, and analyze household characteristic data.
