9.20.16 Received referral stating client was working and didn’t report it. Interviewed client and, after reviewing the employer statement, my interview notes, and the clients statement, I concluded there was intent to commit fraud. The client admitted to not reporting employment for two years. If the client had reported that income, she would not have been eligible for SNAP.
