Published by Food and Nutrition Service | Department of Agriculture | Catalog Last Checked: May 05, 2026 at 11:51 PM | Dataset Last Updated: August 11, 2020
As required by federal law, state SNAP agencies verify financial and non-financial information by matching SNAP applicant and participant information to various national and state data sources to ensure they meet the program’s eligibility criteria. Data matching is an important tool for ensuring program integrity and benefit accuracy. However, information on states’ data matching practices and protocols is limited. This study was undertaken to address this knowledge gap.
