USDA Sets FY2025 SNAP Payment Rules to Curb Waste
USDA announced FY2025 SNAP payment error rates, with a national rate of 10.62%—above the 6% threshold—leading to state accountability measures: states at or above 6% could owe 5%, 10%, or 15% of benefits and must submit a corrective action plan; the report cites about $10.1 billion in improper payments nationwide and ties the rules to new guardrails under H.R. 1.
