FNS has reviewed the issue of whether a facility that receives tax credits under the Low-Income Housing Tax Credits program meets the exception to the institution rule as being federally subsidized housing for the elderly pursuant to the Food Stamp Act of 1977.
The rule establishes procedures to be followed by the Inspector General and other federal law enforcement officials who conduct investigations of alleged violations of the Food Stamp Act and who may, during the course of those investigations, acquire property subject to forfeiture and denial of property rights.
This document contains a correction to the final regulation (59 FR 5697) published on Feb. 8, 1994. The regulations concerned certain provisions of the Food, Agriculture, Conservation, and Trade Act Amendments of 1991 that dealt with disabled persons in group homes and income exclusions for Plans for Achieving Self-Support.
