303.05 How to Verify Residence SR 97-13, 05/97 (FSM-A)

Verify the individual’s New Hampshire residence using any document that reasonably establishes an address. Individuals need not have a fixed living address as long as their New Hampshire residency can be verified. Addresses such as post office boxes, rural route addresses, or general delivery addresses cannot establish New Hampshire residency.

Exception: A homeless household must not be denied food stamps because residency cannot be verified.

To be considered homeless, a household must not have as a primary night time residence a temporary accommodation in the same residence of another individual for longer than 90 days.
