State SNAP Agency NDNH Matching Program Performance Report

State agencies that administer Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Programs (SNAP) are mandated by federal law to participate in a computerized matching program with the federal Office of Child Support Services (OCSS). The computerized matching program compares each state SNAP agency’s applicant and recipient information with employment information maintained in the National Directory of New Hires (NDNH). The outcomes of the computerized match provide each state SNAP agency with information that will help to establish or verify an individual’s eligibility for SNAP benefits. Determining eligibility also helps each state agency reduce payment errors, identify duplicate participants, and maintain program integrity. To receive NDNH information, each state SNAP agency must enter into a computer matching agreement with OCSS and adhere to its terms and conditions, including providing OCSS with an annual performance outcomes report. This is a revision of a currently approved information collection. See A.15 for details.
