Since October 3, 1984, persons who quit their jobs have been required to wait 90 days from the date they applied for food stamps to receive benefits. The law originally set the beginning date of the waiting period at the time when applicants quit their jobs. However, when the waiting period was extended from 60 to 90 days in October 1984, the new rule incorrectly changed the start of that period to the date they actually applied for food stamps. Eligible recipients would be able to recoup benefits they lost as a result of the error. State officials urge persons who quit jobs voluntarily and applied for food stamps' since October 1984, to contact their local welfare office to find out if they are eligible to collect lost benefits.
