Nutrition Assistance Integrity

Pre-settlement and retroactive attestation for the $113B SNAP program, plus WIC, CACFP, NSLP, and TEFAP. Every retailer authorization, redemption-volume signal, post-disqualification billing pattern, trafficking-pattern marker, and state policy-version drift is verified against the federal rule frozen at the date of decision, sealed with a CREB™, and re-verifiable by USDA-FNS, a state SNAP integrity office, an inspector general, or a federal court.

The SNAP integrity gap is structural: state agencies and USDA-FNS run anti-fraud detection downstream of authorization, after the redemption has cleared and the dollar has moved. JIL inverts the order — attestation runs at the rail. Retailer authorization integrity, density anomalies, sanctions recidivism, policy-version freshness, and trafficking-pattern markers are surfaced as a sealed verdict the moment a transaction touches the JIL boundary. Every retailer attested. Every flagged redemption sealed. Every CREB™ FRE 902(13)-admissible.
AThree surfaces, one product

SNAP / WIC attestation ships in three distinct surfaces. A state SNAP agency or USDA-FNS partner can adopt one, two, or all three.

  1. Concurrent Attestation API. Real-time pre-settlement verdict on retailer authorization, density-anomaly score, and policy-freshness. Returns a sealed attestation in < 2 s.
  2. Per-decision CREB™. Court Ready Evidence Bundle for any flagged retailer or trafficking-pattern case — FRE 902(13)-compliant, validator-quorum-signed (14-of-20 BFT). The bundle a USDA-OIG investigator, state AG, or federal court receives.
  3. Retroactive Integrity Audit (integration-gated). One-time integration into the state SNAP system of record + state-level EBT transaction feed builds a verifiable CREB for every historical retailer / household / vendor decision in scope (4–6 year lookback). Pricing in the table below.

01Retailer Authorization & Density Integrity

Every SNAP-authorized retailer transaction is verified against the FNS Retailer Locator master and the per-ZIP convenience-store density baseline. JIL has indexed 256,072 FNS-authorized retailers as of 2026-05-14. Density anomalies (ZIPs with >75% c-store concentration) are surfaced as Tier-3 trafficking-risk corridors per USDA-OIG framework.

02Post-Disqualification & Sanctions Recidivism

Cross-walks SNAP retailers against the FNS Disqualifications List + Sanctions Imposed list + SAM.gov Federal Exclusions list (cross-vertical, already-LIVE). Detects retailers (by owner + EIN + ZIP cluster) reappearing under a new FNS# after a permanent disqualification — the highest-impact T3 evidence pattern for USDA-OIG referral.

03Trafficking-Pattern Attestation

Multi-signal detection: ZIP-cluster density + redemption-per-square-foot + even-dollar transactions + manual-keyed entry rate + cross-card sharing. National-pattern correlation against USDA-FNS ALERT (gated; state-partnership required). Without state EBT data, surfaces as Tier 2 substantiation candidate.

04State Policy-Version Freshness

Cross-walks every state eligibility / issuance / authorization decision against the SNAP / WIC Federal Register publication superseding date. JIL has indexed 1,505 FNS Federal Register documents (1995-2026). Flags state decisions operating on a rule that has been superseded by a more recent FR Rule. State-Plan-Amendment lag is the load-bearing signal.

05Real-data demo engagements (LIVE 2026-05-14)

Three live demo engagements at customer.jilsovereign.com/ava/ built on real USDA-FNS data sourced from Snowflake JIL_DATA.SNAP_NUTRITION.*:

06What you get
  • Per-decision attestation. Retailer authorization, density, sanctions cross-walk, policy freshness — each sealed individually.
  • CourtChain™ evidence. Append-only ledger with cryptographic timestamp, hash chain, validator-quorum signature.
  • CREB™ issuance. Court Ready Evidence Bundle for flagged retailers, self-authenticating under FRE 902(13).
  • PoCS dashboard. Continuous Proof of Compliance State across the SNAP retailer master, not a quarterly snapshot.
  • Regulatory mapping. 7 USC 2018, 7 CFR 278, Privacy Act 1974, IRS §6103, applicable state SNAP statutes mapped check-by-check.
07What this is not
  • Not a replacement for USDA-FNS Retailer Operations, STARS, ALERT, or NSCI. JIL produces attestations; existing systems remain the system of record.
  • Not a recovery vendor. JIL detects and proves. USDA-OIG or the state agency acts on the attestation.
  • Not contingency-priced. Flat fee on the rate card. No percentage of recovered funds.
  • Not a black box. Every check is versioned, audit-traceable, statutorily-cited.
  • Not a household-PII access vendor. Household-side T2/T3 evidence requires the state SNAP agency to engage JIL under a BAA-equivalent contractor relationship; we do not aggregate cross-state PII.
07.5Choose your engagement type

SNAP and WIC integrity splits cleanly into two buyer types. Both ship under the same Snowflake/Databricks deployment plane and the same CREB(TM) evidence artifact, but the commercial terms differ.

State SIU running retailer-fraud detectionUse the Fraud Pillar Pricing below (12.5% flat + 10% contingency + 4yr retro). Performance-aligned. Recovery-driven. Matches the MCO/Medicare model on jilsovereign.com/products/mco-flat-fee.
Grants-compliance / per-case attestation buyerUse the Attestyx Tier 1/2/3 flat-fee model below. Federal-procurement-friendly, no contingency, FRE 902(14) institutional neutrality preserved.
08aFraud Pillar Pricing (state SIU)

Same canonical block as every other JIL fraud-vertical page. Anchored to UHG 10-K Schedule H disclosures + CMS PERM 2024.

Retroactive scanOne-time, scoped to state SNAP transaction volume. 4-year minimum retro lookback. Builds the base dataset across retailer authorization, disqualifications, sanctions, EBT redemption patterns, and cross-state recidivism. Proves closed-loop economics before the flat-fee leg starts.
Flat fee12.5% of disclosed program-integrity contractor spend, annual, capped. Below the industry-standard 15-25% SIU contingency. Covers nightly T1 + AVA + T2 + CREB(TM) generation across the retailer-side detection lane.
Contingency10% of net cash recovered. Performance-aligned. Fires only on actual recovered cash, net of MAC appeal, settlement, and pursuit. Outside counsel runs 33%.
90-day pilot$1M all-in. Asymmetric downside. If Day 90 deliverables miss, the $1M converts to a 6-month platform credit and contingency drops from 10% to 7.5%. No other vendor in SNAP integrity takes pure downside on the math.
08bAttestyx Tier 1/2/3 Pricing (grants compliance / per-case)
Concurrent Attestation APIFlat-fee annual subscription, volume-tiered by retailers + redemptions in scope. $250K to $5M annual. Includes the CREB(TM) bundle on demand for any flagged retailer or trafficking-pattern case.
Retroactive Integrity Audit$500K integration + $250K to $5M annual by retro corpus size. One-time integration into the state SNAP system of record + EBT transaction feed builds a CREB for every historical retailer / household / vendor decision in scope.
IntegrationAPI-first via Connector SDK. Sits between USDA-FNS / state SNAP system and the redemption rail. 2 to 5 days minimum-viable go-live; 8 to 12 weeks for production-grade tightly-coupled state integration.
CompliancePrivacy Act 1974, IRS §6103, applicable state SNAP statutes. HITRUST / NIST 800-53 / SOC 2 Type II inherited via the deployment plane: Path A (Snowflake-native), Path B (Databricks-native), Path C (JIL Cloud, SOC 2 Type II ETA Q4 2027).
Evidence Retention15+ year retention on CourtChain(TM). FRE 902(13) self-authenticating certification per sealed record. 14-of-20 BFT validator quorum across 13+ jurisdictions.
