Section 372.1003 - Reopening a Denied Application(a) Applications. When processing SNAP and TANF applications, the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) follows RSA 273.2(h)(2)(i)(A) and reopens a denied application, so long as the household complies with the missed requirements as required by the federal regulation. HHSC otherwise requires the household to file a new application.(b) SNAP recertifications. HHSC follows RSA 273.14(e)(2) and reopens a denied SNAP application for recertification, so long as the household complies with the missed requirements as required by the federal regulation. HHSC otherwise requires the household to file a new application.(c) TANF periodic reviews. For TANF periodic reviews, HHSC follows the same policy for SNAP recertifications in subsection (b) of this section, except HHSC reopens the denied application if the household complies with the missed requirements within 60 days after the original file date. HHSC otherwise requires the household to file a new application.1 Tex. Admin. Code § 372.1003
