Question: 1 / 400

All of the following statements are true about the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), except:

To qualify, one's gross monthly income must fall at or below 130% of poverty levels or 100% if the poverty level for net monthly income

Applications must have no discernable assets or money in bank accounts

The statement regarding applications having no discernable assets or money in bank accounts is incorrect. While SNAP does consider income levels, it does not disqualify applicants based solely on having assets. Different states have varying asset limits, and many applicants may still qualify if they have modest savings or assets.

In contrast, the other statements correctly reflect aspects of SNAP. For instance, the income qualifications set limits based on federal poverty guidelines, ensuring that those in need have access to nutrition assistance. Additionally, children who receive SNAP benefits indeed gain automatic access to free school meals, reflecting the program's goal of supporting food security for families. Lastly, recognizing SNAP's history as the Food Stamp Program is essential, as is its inclusion of nutrition education services to help recipients make informed food choices.
