Subchapter 4 - FINANCIAL ELIGIBILITY; RESOURCES
Section 10:87-4.13 - Disqualification

Households that have transferred resources knowingly for the purpose of qualifying or attempting to qualify for NJ SNAP benefits shall be disqualified for up to one year (see schedule at 10:87-4.17) from the date of discovery of the transfer. This disqualification period shall be applied if the resources are transferred knowingly in the three-month period prior to application or if they are transferred knowingly after the household is determined eligible for benefits. An example of the latter would be assets that the household acquires after being certified for benefits and that are then transferred to prevent the household from exceeding the maximum resource limit.
