Title: Food Stamp Program: Retailer Application Processing 
Abstract: This rule would increase from 30 to 90 days the initial application processing timeframe for stores that apply for authorization. It would also allow FCS to request specific documentation to verify applicant firms' eligibility. Such information would include, but would not be limited to, business licenses, photographic identification cards, bills of sale, deeds, leases, sales contracts, certificates of incorporation, sales records, invoice records, and tax records. This documentation would be used to confirm self-reported information provided on the application form and to obtain third-party verification. (95-008)
