A person classified as a nonhousehold member may be an AR for the household only if the person is an adult who knows enough about the relevant household circumstances and the AR request was made in writing by the head of household, the spouse of the head of household, or another responsible member of the household.   7 CFR § 273.2(n)(1)(i)

A retailer authorized to accept SNAP benefits or a CAO employee involved in certifying or issuing benefits may act as an AR only if the executive director (or his or her designee) gives written approval and determines that no one else is available to serve as an AR.
