340:50-15-26. Reporting incidences of abuse in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program
|

Revised 6-1-09

 

      In addition to submitting overpayments involving suspected fraud of households, the worker is also responsible for submitting any incidence of reported abuse on the part of any person, or a participating food store.  Other incidences of reported fraud are submitted by memorandum to the Family Support Services Division (FSSD) Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) Section.  The memorandum outlines the complaint in sufficient detail to facilitate a follow-up investigation.  Further action is not taken by human services center (HSC) staff pending investigation, and suspected ineligibles continue to participate in SNAP during the investigation.  The FSSD SNAP Section refers the complaint to the Office of Inspector General for investigation and determination of whether to pursue administrative and/or court action.  Instances of misrepresentation or fraudulent acts on the part of a participating merchant may be referred to the United States Department of Agriculture by the Oklahoma Department of Human Services (OKDHS) Director.
