New York State Nutrition Improvement Project (NYSNIP) benefit levels have been adjusted as part of the 2008 Jan MRB/A effective 1/1/08. This is the annual adjustment to benefit amounts that occurs because of the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) cost-of-living adjustment (COLA). Information regarding the WMS mass rebudgeting/reauthorization of NYSNIP benefit levels was provided in ABEL Transmittal 07-3. Affected cases appear on the ELIGIBLES LIST of cases re-budgeted with ALERT ”U”- “NYSNIP CASE”. NYSNIP cases will be notified by CNS notice of the change in benefits due to the annual adjustment of Supplemental Security Income and Social Security benefits.
