Enter the last month and year (MM/YY) of the current SNAP approval period when:

  • SNAP benefits are approved (Item 15 is coded 1, 2, 4, 5 or 6), and

IES

When an application is approved in IES, the system assigns an Item 24 date based on the SNAP Approval Period Chart in WAG 17-05-02. Currently the date assigned must pass through the IPACS edits.

IPACS Edits
