SNAP Applications Originating at the Social Security Administration

To facilitate the application process for SSI applicants/recipients, the United States Department of Agriculture granted waivers to certain standard policy items. The revised policy items, resulting from these waivers, apply only to one-person SNAP households who receive SSI benefits and differ depending on whether the household is a Commonwealth of Massachusetts Combined Application Project (Bay State CAP) household or a regular SNAP household. The waivers apply only to the policy items addressed in 106 CMR 366.910 and 366.920.
