The ARRA suspends the ABAWD work requirement from 4/1/09 through 9/30/09, so counties should have (already) restored food stamps to otherwise eligible ABAWDs who were part of an ongoing food stamp household, but were sanctioned for not meeting the work requirements. In addition, an ABAWD in a closed case previously discontinued an ABAWD work failure can reapply for aid. And, out with the old, in with the new: The ABAWD calendars are erased, and start anew 10/2010, when the ARRA provisions phase out. [Download]
