If you re counting on SNAP benefits to help cover groceries this month there s something you should know The USDA has certified that particular households could get as much as in SNAP payments between June and June But before assuming that check is headed your way let s break it all down in plain language Where That Number Comes From Okay so not everyone is getting a payout That number is the absolute maximum SNAP benefit for a family of eight people living in most of U S states not including Alaska or Hawaii which use different rates If your family is smaller you ll get less If it s bigger you might get a little more about for each extra person The USDA adjusts these numbers every year based on food prices and with how expensive groceries still are that update really matters Why Between June and SNAP payments don t hit everyone s account at once Each state has its own schedule and selected states spread payments out over the whole month For example Florida and Texas send out benefits throughout the entire month all the way up to the th Other states might wrap things up sooner like by the th or th So if your benefits haven t arrived yet don t panic you could still see them come through anytime from June to depending on where you live and how your incident is set up Who Veritably Gets the Full That big number is for big households with very low income Think families with six seven eight people where no one s really bringing in much money or maybe someone in the home is disabled or elderly and can t work These folks often also have high monthly bills like rent electricity or therapeutic expenses If that sounds like your situation and your event is operational and up to date you could be in line for the full amount or something close to it Wondering If You re Eligible If you re new to SNAP or you re not sure whether you qualify here s what you can do Head over to your state s official SNAP website you can Google your state SNAP The greater part sites have a simple tool where you put in your income expenses and household size and they ll tell you if you qualify If you already have benefits you can log in to your EBT account online or just call the number on the back of your EBT card to check your balance and payment schedule Real Talk What This Means for Families Let s be real for a second food prices are still high even if inflation has slowed down And for a lot of families SNAP is what keeps food on the table Whether you re getting or it helps make the month feel a little more manageable So if you re sitting there wondering when your money s coming and you live in a state that issues benefits late in the month just know you re not forgotten Payments are still rolling out through June
