Food and Nutrition Service

    Title: Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) Pre-
Screening Tool.
    OMB Control Number: 0584-0519.
    Summary of Collection: This is a renewal of an existing information 
collection. Consistent with Section 5 of the Food and Nutrition Act of 
2008, as amended, the Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) has developed 
the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) Pre-Screening Tool 
to enable the public to determine the potential eligibility for 
benefits in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP).
    Need and Use of the Information: The pre-screening tool allows 
users to enter the household size, income, expenses and resource 
information in order to calculate an estimated range of benefits that 
the household may be eligible to receive. Since SNAP eligibility and 
benefit amount may vary based on program options States have 
implemented, FNS makes it clear that the tool is only an estimator and 
the household will need to contact the local agency to determine actual 
eligibility and the associated benefit amount.
    Description of Respondents: Individuals or households.
    Number of Respondents: 380,283.
    Frequency of Responses: Reporting: On occasion.
