*Title:*                     Annual State Report on Verification of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) Participation.                

*OMB Control Number:*                     0584-0605.                

*Summary of Collection:*                     SNAP regulations at 7 CFR 273.16 require that State agencies disqualify an individual who has committed an intentional program violation (IPV). Paragraph 7 CFR 273.16(e)(8) requires that these individuals “be disqualified in accordance with the disqualification periods and procedures in paragraph (b) of this section” (273.16(b)). Paragraph 7 CFR 273.16(i) requires State agencies to report information concerning each individual disqualified for an IPV to the disqualified recipient database, the electronic Disqualified Recipient System (eDRS), and to use eDRS data to determine the eligibility of individual applicants prior to certification. SNAP regulations at 7 CFR 272.14 require that each State agency establish a system to verify and ensure that benefits are not issued to individuals who are deceased, and that data source is the Social Security Administration's (SSA) Death Master File. The information required for the Annual State Report on Verification of SNAP Participation is obtained by validating that the State had the appropriate systems in place and followed procedures currently mandated at 7 CFR 272.14 and 7 CFR 273.16 for the preceding fiscal year.                

*Need and Use of the Information:*                     The information required for the Annual State Report on Verification of SNAP Participation is obtained by validating that the State agency had the appropriate systems in place and followed procedures currently mandated at 7 CFR 272.14 and 7 CFR 273.16 for the preceding fiscal year. State agencies must annually confirm, by stating in one email to their FNS Regional SNAP Program Director, that the appropriate systems were in place in the State to meet the requirements of regulations at 7 CFR 272.14 and 273.16(i)(4), and that they conducted the matches required by these regulations. States are required to submit their Section 4032 reports to the FNS Regional SNAP Director by March 31 each year for the preceding Federal fiscal year. 7 CFR 272.1(f) mandates that State agencies are required to retain all records associated with the administration of SNAP for no less than 3 years.                

*Description of Respondents:*                     State, Local, or Tribal government.                

*Number of Respondents:*                     106.                

*Frequency of Responses:*                     Reporting: Annually.                

*Total Burden Hours:*                     119.
