The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) is still sending Food Stamps to millions of beneficiaries. The United States funds these payments for low-income families through USDA and the Food and Nutrition Service.
Some States like Arizona, Arkansas, and Minnesota only have 2 payments left. So, one SNAP check will arrive on February 12 while the other one will be due on February 13.
Florida and Texas will have many more paydays. So if you are on SNAP benefits in these States you may not receive Food Stamps this week. It could be the case that your payday is on the 28th.
HOW MANY STATES ARE SENDING SNAP PAYMENTS THIS WEEK?
As a matter of fact, the United States Department of Agriculture has confirmed that there are 25 states sending Food Stamps. While some States like Alaska sent all payments on a single payday, others will take weeks.
