SERVICES
Remember, it is against the rules and regulations of SNAP for you to accept or redeem any SNAP FOOD benefits until you are authorized by USDA, FNS. Each store location under your ownership must have a separate SNAP permit; you must submit a separate application for each store that you own. If your store changes ownership, if you move, or if you close your store, your SNAP permit is void. You cannot transfer your permit to someone else. Call 1-800-642-9633 for more information.
