SNAP: Household Composition: Elderly/Disabled

340:50-5-4

A SNAP household (HH) that includes a member that is 60 years or older is determined to be elderly.

A SNAP HH that includes a member that has been declared disabled by the Social Security Administration is determined to be disabled. Veterans with a disability rated by the United States Department of Veteran’s Affairs as total or paid as total are also determined to be disabled.

The E/D indicator on the SNAP eligibility tab in FACS must be updated to correctly reflect elderly and disabled households. These codes are:

A = ALL HOUSEHOLD MEMBERS ARE ELDERLY OR DISABLED

E = ALL ADULT HOUSEHOLD MEMBERS ARE ELDERLY OR DISABLED, AND THERE IS ONE OR MORE MINOR WHO IS NOT DISABLED

N = NO HOUSEHOLD MEMBERS ARE ELDERLY OR DISABLED

S = SOME HOUSEHOLD MEMBERS ARE ELDERLY OR DISABLED, BUT AT LEAST ONE OR MORE ADULT IS NEITHER
