- Unlike several states in this roster (Colorado's stale CCR, Missouri's password-walled resource section), South Carolina's own primary source presented NO access barrier and NO material staleness: Volume 70 is dated June 2026, roughly two months before this pack's fetch date, and its dollar figures (Standard Deduction $209/$209/$209/$223/$261/$299, Excess Shelter cap $744, resource limits $3,000/$4,500, and the full gross/net income-eligibility table) match the current national FFY2026 cycle exactly, and its ABAWD provisions already reflect the 2025 OBBBA changes (18-64 age range, under-14 dependent-child exception, removed homelessness/veteran/foster-care exemptions, added Indian/Urban Indian/California Indian exemption) with no internal contradiction found anywhere in the text. The one genuinely live, time-sensitive fact this pack found: USDA approved a South Carolina SNAP Food Restriction Waiver (excluding candy, energy drinks, soft drinks, and sweetened beverages from SNAP-eligible purchases) on Dec. 10, 2025, modified Aug. 3, 2026, but NOT YET EFFECTIVE as of this pack's fetch date — it takes effect Aug. 31, 2026, twenty days after this pack's fetch date.
