249.03 Who Is Not Eligible For Extended Food Stamps (EFS) (FSM)

____________________________________________________________

Households are not eligible for EFS if FANF financial assistance closed in part or solely due to any of the following:

• a sanction or IPV;

• being a fleeing felon or a probation or parole violator;

• a transfer of assets or property to qualify for assistance;

• receipt of a lump sum;

• failure to cooperate with quality control or child support;

• failure to provide verification required to determine eligibility;

• failure to complete a recertification or attend a special review appointment;

• not residing in New Hampshire;

• a client requests the financial assistance case to be closed, unless the request is due to saving FANF months on the lifetime limit; or

• a casehead has left the household.

Households in which all members are ineligible for SNAP benefits are also ineligible for EFS.

Individuals ineligible for or excluded from SNAP at the time that EFS is initially determined will remain ineligible for the duration of the EFS period.
