ABAWD Regaining Eligibility

If a person uses their 3 Countable Months and loses their SNAP eligibility, they can regain eligibility if they work at least 80 hours in any 30 day period following the expiration of the SNAP benefits.

UpdatedABAWD – Not Meeting Work Requirements, ‘K’ Months, and Regaining Eligibility

If a person is not working a minimum of 20 hours per week and receiving compensation for that work and is not otherwise exempt for the ABAWD policy, then they are considered to be “Countable ABAWD’s”. They are limited to receiving 3 full months of benefits. If the initial cert month is not a full certification month, it is not considered to their 3 month limit.
