USDA has confirmed when the next payment dates will be in New York. So, if you are living in this State, you can check when your SNAP EBT card will have new cash in September.
From September 4 through September 10 there will be SNAP payments every day. The thing is you need to be eligible and those who have not applied and gotten approval do not qualify. Eligible recipients need to check their case number and the number it ends.
Maximum SNAP payment amounts in New York
The maximum amounts for Food Stamps in New York are exactly the same as for those citizens living in the 48 contiguous States and the District of Columbia. Here are the full amounts:
Number of members in the household Maximum amount in New York
1 $291
2 $535
3 $766
4 $973
5 $1,155
6 $1,386
7 $1,532
8 $1,751
Each additional member $219
These maximum SNAP amounts will remain the same until September 30, 2024. After that, the 2025 COLA increase will take place in New York and the other contiguous States.
SNAP eligibility for the payment dates left in September
While three different payments have already been delivered, there are many SNAP recipients who have not collected their money yet.
- If your SNAP case number ends in 4, your benefits will be ready on the 4th of September.
- Should your case number end in 5, benefits will be disbursed on the 5th of the month.
- With a case number ending in 6, expect your SNAP benefits on the 6th of the month.
- A case number ending in 7 means benefits are distributed on the 7th of the month.
- If the last digit of your case number is 8, benefits will be available on the 8th of the month.
- For case numbers ending in 9, benefits are scheduled for the 9th of September.
Those New Yorkers who know someone who is experiencing food insecurity can help them apply online or visit their local Food Stamps office. In this way, they can get money to buy food in eligible farmer markets, retailers, and grocery stores.
