Section 1-11 - Verification

TEFAP employs the declaration of eligibility method. Additional verification is only necessary at the coordinator's discretion and if there is a question about one or more of the eligibility requirements.

(a) Verification of any one or all eligibility factors may be requested at the time of application at the county coordinator's option. If verification is not received, the county coordinator may deny participation until verification of eligibility factors is received.

(b) Verification of the following factors shall be required of an applicant upon request:

• (i) Household size. This may be verified through collateral contacts with the landlord, neighbors, school records or other means;

• (ii) Gross income for the entire household. The applicant may verify income with wage stubs, an employer's statement or self-employment or business records; and

• (iii) Social Security numbers for all adults in the household. This may be verified with Social Security cards, old tax returns, wage stubs or a driver's license.

(c) Homelessness may be verified by a written statement from the applicant/recipient.
