SNAP or the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program is funded by USDA. However, States can administer paydays, payments, and applications. In fact, Florida is one of the few States that sends money through May 28.
If you live in Florida and receive SNAP benefits, you need to know your Case Number to see when your payment is due. Then take the 9th and 8th digit, read backward, and drop the 10th digit.
THREE LAST SNAP PAYMENTS IN FLORIDA IN MAY
Food Stamp recipients whose case numbers 9th and 8th digits are 89-92 will be due on May 26th. The following beneficiaries to get Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits will be those whose case numbers 9th and 8th digits are 93-95.
If it is 96-99, following the same guidelines as before, your SNAP payment will be on your EBT card on May 27. The last opportunity to get Food Stamps will be on May 28th.
Even if there are only three groups of SNAP beneficiaries who qualify for benefits in May, there are also some June payments this week. So, if your case number 9th and 8th digit is 00-03, your money will be sent on June 1. Or on June 2 if it is 04-06.
SNAP MAXIMUM AMOUNTS IN FLORIDA THIS WEEK
The maximum Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program amount is $291 if you live on your own. If you are a married couple or there are just two members in your household, it could be up to $535.
The amount increases up to $766 if you are 3 members living together or up to $973 if you are a four-member family in Florida. The higher your family size, the higher your payment could be.
As a matter of fact, the largest SNAP benefit in Florida is worth $1,751 if you are 8. Having 9 members means you could get $219 extra. If you know someone who has a low income and faces a lack of money to buy groceries, help them apply now.
