Comment Request - SNAP Quality Control Regulations (FNS 245)

The FNS-245, Negative Case Action Review Schedule, is designed to collect quality control (QC) data and serve as the data entry form for negative case action QC reviews in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). State agencies complete the FNS-245 for each negative case in their QC sample.

The reporting and recordkeeping burden associated with the completion of the FNS-245 has decreased from approximately 115,514.87 hours to 102,001 hours. The 13,513.87 hour decrease in the total burden is largely a result of the decrease in total SNAP negative case selections from 38,970 cases in FY 2015 to 34,322 cases in FY 2018.
