Helpful Tips:
There is a simplified SNAP application available to use if everyone in the household:
  • is age 60 or older or has a disability,
    • purchases and prepares food together, and
    • does not receive any earnings from work
      • Visit the SNAP for Older Adults pagefor more details.

      (A household is a group of people who usually purchase and prepare meals together. People in the household are not required to be related.)
