Extend Pend and the Pending Point In Time Report in the VaCMS

About

 

There are times when the ‘Pending’ status for a SNAP application needs to be extended. The VaCMS will correctly identify a SNAP application as ‘Extend Pend’ when the LDSS has correctly updated the Extend Pend status on the Program Request – Details page. The Extend Pend field is enabled only for the SNAP program on and after the 30th day from Program Request date.
