NEW LAW BROADENS THE GROUP WHO NEED TO MEET WORK REQUIREMENTS. Under the new rules, able-bodied adults aged 18 to 64 without dependents must work 80 hours per month to retain SNAP eligibility beyond three months in a 36-month period. The previous age limit was 54. Veterans, people experiencing homelessness, and certain young adults who aged out of foster care must meet these same requirements.
