The States of California, Colorado, Idaho, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Nevada, Oklahoma, and South Carolina will be sending SNAP benefits through July 10. So, there will be 4 paydays in most cases.
The District of Columbia and Guam will also continue paying SNAP benefits until July 10. USDA allows States to administer paydays and applications, thus, they are slightly different. For example, they are called CalFresh in California, and they are sent through July 28 in Florida and Texas.
Where can SNAP recipients get up to $2,581 in July?
According to USDA’s Fiscal Year 2024 Cost-of-Living Adjustments factsheet, Guam can pay up to $2,581 if you are 8. If you are a single recipient in Guam, it can be up to $430. Families of 4 in Guam can receive up to $1,434.
Alaska, Hawaii, Guam and the U.S. Virgin Islands have higher maximum amounts because they have a higher cost of living. Therefore, citizens need more money there to buy the same foods and drinks.
The 48 contiguous States and the District of Columbia share the maximum amounts. For instance, you can get up to $291 if you are just one person in your household. Families of 4 ca receive up to $943 and up to $1,751 for 8.
How do I know if my SNAP benefits are due from July 7-10?
It will depend on the way your State arranges paydays. Californians will receive money on their SNAP cards from July 7-10 if their case number ends in 7, 8, 9, and 0 respectively.
Recipients living in Colorado will need to check their Social Security Number instead. Those whose SSN ends in 7, 8, 9, or 0 will get it on July 7, 8, 9, or 10. Idaho uses the last digit of your birth year. If it ends in 7, 8, 9 or 0, you get SNAP on the 7th, 8th, 9th, or 10th.
Illinois generally sends Food Stamps from 1st to the 10th after October 23, 2017, depending on the last digit of the Head of Household Individual ID number you may get it sooner or later.
