Nevada work requirements for SNAP and Medicaid

What the 80-hour rule means in Nevada, who runs it, and where to send your proof.

🛒 SNAP in Nevada

Called Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), run by Nevada Department of Human Services, Division of Social Services (DSS; formerly DWSS).

Adults 18–64 without a child under 14 at home need 80 hours a month of work, volunteering or training, or an exemption, to keep SNAP past 3 months in 3 years.

🩺 Medicaid in Nevada

Expansion coverage is called Nevada Medicaid. Nevada expanded Medicaid, so the work rule applies to adults 19–64 in the expansion group, starting January 1, 2027.

Run by Nevada Health Authority (Nevada Medicaid).

📌 Nevada Medicaid work requirements start 2027-01-01 for expansion adults 19-64; self-attestation allowed in 2027. SNAP: partial ABAWD time-limit waiver (some areas only) in effect as of 2026-10-01 per USDA FNS.

Some areas of Nevada have a federal waiver of the SNAP time limit. Ask your caseworker whether your county or city is included before counting hours.

Where to report and upload proof

Always follow the deadlines in the letters Nevada sends you. If you get a notice about work requirements, answer it before the due date, even if you think you’re exempt.
