Revises Work First New Jersey program and Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program procedures to require information on security protocols be provided when replacement benefit cards are issued.
This bill requires that individuals receiving benefits from the Work First New Jersey program and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program receive written instructions on how to lock and unlock their replacement benefit cards. The law aims to help recipients safeguard their accounts against unauthorized use by ensuring they understand the security protocols for their electronic cards at the time of issuance. Currently, while replacement cards are issued, there is no mandate to provide these specific security instructions to the cardholders. This change applies to all adult recipients in New Jersey who are issued new benefit cards under the state's electronic benefit distribution system.
