605-1 A. STRIKERS
A striker is anyone involved in a strike or concerted stoppage or slowdown of work by employees. Individuals affected by a lockout are not considered strikers. For SNAP, individuals on strike who were exempt from work registration the day prior to the strike for reasons other than employment are not considered strikers.
Households with striking members shall be ineligible to participate in SNAP unless the household was income and resource eligible the day prior to the strike. Households eligible prior to the strike will not receive an increased allotment as a result of a decrease in the household's income due to the strike. Eligible strikers must be registered for work unless they are exempt the day of application.
Calculate the striker's regular monthly income as though the day prior to the strike was the application date and the strike had not occurred. Compare the striker's income prior to the strike to the striker's current income. Add the higher of the two incomes (pre-strike or current) to the remaining household members' current income. Proceed as usual to determine eligibility and allotment amount.
