New SNAP benefits confirmed for last two weeks of November

As November approaches, Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) beneficiaries can expect to receive another round of payments. SNAP benefits, also called food stamps, offer low-income families in all 50 states, Washington, D.C., and U.S. territories monthly assistance to help them buy food. Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) cards contain these SNAP benefits and can be used to purchase eligible food items at participating retailers. Although SNAP benefits are a federal program, they are distributed at the state and local level; therefore payment schedules vary. Payment dates vary by state, and deadlines may vary depending on factors such as the recipient’s case number, the initial of their last name, or other state-specific rules.
