The CWA shall certify each eligible household for a definite period of time. CWAs shall assign the longest certification period possible based on the predictability of the household's circumstances. The first month of the certification period will be the first month for which the household is eligible to participate. The certification period cannot exceed 12 months, except for households in which all adult members are elderly or disabled, which are to be certified for up to 24 months with at least one CWA contact at least every 12 months. At the expiration of each certification period, entitlement to NJ SNAP benefits ends. Further eligibility shall be established only upon a recertification based upon a newly completed application, an interview, and such verification as required by 10:87-2.19 and 2.20.
