Food Stamps Reapplication Guidelines
Summary
Past medical records are not reviewed when reapplying for food stamps in Hawaii. Eligibility is based on income, household size, and financial criteria. SSDI is considered income for SNAP eligibility. Sharing food purchased with SNAP is not illegal, but misuse of benefits can lead to penalties. First-time food stamp fraud in Hawaii results in a 12-month disqualification. If your case is closed, you dont need to report past changes, but accurate information is required when reapplying.Full Conversation
