SNAP 2026 News:
There are many changes coming for SNAP program recipients. The first change that you may see or be impacted by is the requirement to now verify shelter, utility, dependent care and medical expenses when applicable. Please note that this has not required verifications for a while due to a waiver that Virginia had. But that waiver is now no longer valid as of October 1, 2025 and your worker will be asking you to provide verifications at application, reapplication, renewal and in the event that you move for the following expenses:

  • Rent/Mortgage

  • Homeowner's Insurance

  • Real Estate Taxes

  • Electricity

  • Propane, Kerosene, Wood

  • Telephone

  • Water/Sewer

  • Garbage

  • Daycare

  • Medical Expenses (if over 60 or disabled)
