(b) Participants excluded from the monthly reporting requirements- 7 CFR 273.21(b). In addition to the exemptions listed in 7 CFR 273.21(b) (relating to Monthly Reporting and Retrospective Budgeting (MRRB)), the following households are excluded from monthly reporting requirements:

(1) Food stamp only households whose sole earned income is from self-employment.

(2) Food stamp only households whose sole earned income is received from employment as a sheltered workshop participant.

(3) Food Stamp only households and combination cash/Food Stamp households whose sole earned income is excluded as countable income under Federal laws or regulations.

(c) Suspension of benefits due to temporary ineligibility- 7 CFR 273.21(n). Program benefits are suspended if the information provided on the monthly reporting form or late/incomplete notice indicates ineligibility which is expected to last for 1 month only. If the participant does not comply with the monthly reporting requirements during the month of suspension, the benefits are terminated.

(d) Reinstating benefits due to a delayed monthly reporting form- 7 CFR 273.21(k)(2)(ii). If a household which has been suspended for failure to file a complete monthly report files a complete report after its extended filing date, but before the end of the issuance month, the CAO will reinstate the household by providing it with an opportunity to participate.
