A Boston man originally from the Dominican Republic was sentenced Wednesday to one year and one day in prison for fraudulently obtaining more than $70,000 in state health and nutrition benefits, federal prosecutors announced Thursday.

Victor Suazo Reynoso, 69, who was residing in the United States without legal authorization, also received two years of supervised release to follow his prison term. According to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for Massachusetts, Reynoso is subject to deportation upon completion of his sentence.

Reynoso pleaded guilty in May to charges of illegally acquiring Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits and falsely representing a Social Security number. Prosecutors said he used the personal information of a U.S. citizen—including name, date of birth, and Social Security number—to obtain a Massachusetts driver’s license, as well as SNAP and MassHealth benefits.

The scheme resulted in over $18,000 in fraudulent payments from the state Department of Transitional Assistance and nearly $55,000 from MassHealth, the state’s health insurance program. As part of his sentence, Reynoso was ordered to repay these amounts in restitution.

He was initially arrested and charged in March. The case was handled by the office of Leah B. Foley, U.S. Attorney for Massachusetts. No further details were released regarding Reynoso’s immigration status or potential appeals.
