NextImg:Food stamps: Initial CalFresh benefits for August worth up to $1,691 to arrive in one day


Recipients of California food stamps, also known as CalFresh under the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, will receive their payment for August in one day.

August SNAP payments in the Golden State start on Tuesday and run through Aug. 10, with the specific payment date depending on the last digit of the person's SNAP case number.

For example, if a case number ends in 1, California recipients can expect to see their CalFresh benefits on Tuesday. If a case number ends in 2, CalFresh benefits will be available on Wednesday. The payment dates continue until Aug. 10, when those with a case number ending in 0 will receive their payment.

The amount of SNAP benefits provided is influenced by multiple factors such as household size, income limits, and additional assets.

In California, the average payment per eligible recipient is $196 a month. The maximum payment for a household of one person each month is $281. The maximum SNAP amount for a household of four is $939, and the maximum amount for a household of eight is $1,691. For each household member past eight, the CalFresh program adds up to $211.
