Ending Disqualification. At the end of the applicable mandatory disqualification period for noncompliance with SNAP work requirements, participation may resume if the disqualified individual applies again and is determined to be in compliance with work requirements. A disqualified individual may be permitted to resume participation during the disqualification period (if otherwise eligible) by becoming exempt form work requirements.
The disqualification continues on closed cases until the individual becomes exempt from the work requirement or complies with the work requirement.
