SNAP in Florida: when your benefits will arrive in August
Because Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) resources are administered by the states, Florida’s payment schedule is considerably different from other places: when will you get your money?
The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) is primary for the entire United States. With SNAP, low-income families are assured of getting food into their homes. States are in charge of administering the resources as they see fit. Therefore, SNAP recipients in Florida will receive their money on a different day than others because of state-specific criteria.
In Florida, as in other U.S. states, they deposit SNAP recipients’ money on the Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) card. However, individuals do not receive payment on the same day. The deposit schedule in Florida depends on the case number you have.
The SNAP benefit payment date in Florida is based on the last two digits of your case number, where:
