When a new month begins, SNAP Food Stamps checks arrive to United States citizens so that they can enjoy their usual shopping. However, there are states where this payment does not arrive at the beginning of the month exactly.
Each state has its own SNAP Food Stamps payment schedule, which results in many citizens getting a benefit earlier than other citizens. And this may not seem like an advantage, but it really is.
The main advantage of this is that even if we have different dates to receive payments we can know perfectly in which window of days we will get a check. In this sense, just by controlling the exact days we will have enough to know when the balance of the EBT card will increase.
If we add to that a Social Security check, of which we can always know the exact date, we have a fairly controlled household economy, so the quality of life of the beneficiaries increases.
WHO CAN GET THE NEW SNAP FOOD STAMPS THIS WEEK?
Although some states have already sent out SNAP Food Stamps checks, other states have not yet started sending them. Even so, there is also another element to keep in mind, and that is that many states have sent out a bunch of checks for this benefit but have not finished sending out all of the payments.
For that reason, the most reliable way to know if we have the benefit money available or not is to check directly our EBT card and the balance we have on it. This is the only way to know 100% that we can already use the money to buy food and other products.
This week we will find that the SNAP Food Stamps check could arrive in the following States:
- Alabama: November 4 to 23
- Arkansas: November 4 to 13
- Delaware: November 2 to 23
- Florida: November 1 to 28
- Georgia: November 5 to 23
- Indiana: November 5 to 23
- Louisiana: November 1 to 23
- Maryland: November 4 to 23
- Michigan: November 3 to 21
- Mississippi: November 4 to 21
- Missouri: November 1 to 22
- New Mexico: November 1 to 20
- North Carolina: November 3-21
- Ohio: November 2-20
- Tennessee: November 1 to 20
- Texas: November 1 to 28
- Washington: November 1 to 20
The rest of the states that are not on the list have already finished sending this benefit to their beneficiaries. If you live in one of these states you might already have the money, but it’s also possible that you haven’t gotten it yet.
And remember that the amount of SNAP Food Stamps is different for each citizen. Getting more or less money in this monthly check will depend on several factors such as the monthly income in the family nucleus or the number of members of the family nucleus itself.
As soon as we get the payment we can use the money to buy basic food and household necessities. There are some products such as alcohol or tobacco that are totally forbidden for SNAP Food Stamps users, so you cannot buy those with this money.
