Recipients usually see their SNAP benefits reloaded on the same day each month, with the date depending on a recipient's Social Security number, last name, case number, or account number. The range of dates varies by state.

For a household of one, the estimated benefit is $281, $740 for a household of three, and $1,116 for a household of five.

SNAP benefit recipients across all 50 states and the District of Columbia will see the amount transferred to a prepaid electronic benefit transfer card. The EBT card works similarly to a debit card and can be used at grocery stores and farmers' markets or at some online retailers. The money is intended for purchasing healthy foods.
