Eligibility and Benefit Determination - Controls to Minimize Duplicate DNAP Food Assistance
Policy and procedures regarding detecting duplicate applications for NA benefits are outlined as follows:
●Systems Inquiry
Access systems information when the programs are available to the disaster site.
Make contact with local offices by phone when the contact does not delay disaster application processing.
●Communication With Other Disaster Sites
Contact the other disaster sites before issuing disaster benefits when possible; however, do not contact the other disaster sites when the contact delays the DNAP benefit issuance.
Compile an alphabetical list of participants by close of business each day. Duplicate the list and provide the list to every other site providing DNAP benefits.
