SNAP payday eligibility and amounts
Depending on the State where you live you may need to check a different thing to know when your payment will be due. For example, if you live in Wisconsin, you will need to know your Social Security Number. All you have to do is check the eight digit of your SSN.
If it is 6, your SNAP benefits will be issued on September 11. September 12 will be for those whose eight digit of the SSN is 7. If it is 8 or 9, the money will be delivered on the 14th or 15th respectively. Visit the official site USDA has for more details in your State: https://www.fns.usda.gov/snap/monthly-issuance-schedule
