New Jersey A4941 revises the SNAP application process to include notices and self-attestation requirements for certification and recertification.

New Jersey A4941 mandates the Division of Family Development in the Department of Human Services to create a notice for State Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) applicants. This notice informs applicants of eligibility and verification requirements, and the responsibilities of county SNAP agencies in assisting applicants. The notice must be provided in English at a fourth-grade reading level and translated into the top seven most common non-English languages in the state, plus any additional languages deemed necessary by the Commissioner of Human Services.
