Montana's Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program will begin its January payments, worth up to $1,751, in 15 days.

Montana distributes SNAP payments over five days each month. December's payments were disbursed from Dec. 2 to Dec. 6, and January's payments will be disbursed from Jan. 2 to Jan. 6. The date when recipients get their payments depends on their SNAP case number, account number, Social Security number, or last name.

The household size of recipients determines the amount of their SNAP payments. Single-person households receive $291 per month, and eight-person households receive up to $1,751 monthly. In households larger than eight, $219 is added for each additional person.

To qualify for SNAP payments in Montana, a single-person household cannot have a net monthly income above $1,215, and an eight-person household cannot have a net monthly income above $4,214.

SNAP benefits can be used at participating locations, including farmers markets and grocery stores. The payments are automatically loaded monthly to an electronic benefits transfer card.
