Your Application to Become a SNAP Retailer

The procedure through which a business owner can submit a Retailer SNAP Application is a web-based system. Your application must be supported by certain obligatory details about the proprietor’s personal history, the history of the business (including a financial history, where applicable), and details of the methods by which your grocery store is (or intends to be) managed in general.  Frequently, the USDA will ask a proprietor to furnish supporting documents with the EBT application for business licensure.  They will request that the applicant give them information and documentation to demonstrate that he or she is the actual individual who will be managing and operating the business.  Several other categories of paperwork that the Department may request before finalizing your application and sending an EBT machine to your store include: your lottery and liquor licenses, your business licenses, your personal tax returns, your bank records and a personal affidavit.
