If a household files a recertification application the month following the last month of the certification period, it is considered an application for recertification; however, benefits must be prorated. Notice F104 – SNAP Recert – After Cert Expired must be sent to the household.

 

Example:

A household's certification period expired on June 30 and the household did not file a recertification application in the last month of their certification period (June). The household files a recertification application on July 9. The recertification application is used and benefits are prorated from July 9. A new Application for Assistance, SFN 405, is not required.

 

The worker must revert the case to open, NEXT to CLIR and use function number 3, enter the case number, office, unit and caseload number and enter off the screen. On the REAP screen, the worker must enter the date the recertification application was received on the Application Received line.
