The Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) of the USDA has issued a notice for public comment on a proposed information collection related to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). This involves using data from the National Directory of New Hires (NDNH) to verify employment information for SNAP applicants and recipients. The goal is to ensure that households receive the correct amount of benefits based on accurate employment data. Public comments are invited on the effectiveness and efficiency of this information collection.
Simple Explanation
The Food and Nutrition Service wants to check if people getting help buying food have the right jobs listed by matching with a job list. They want to know what people think about how they do this since it might take a lot more time to handle than before.
