The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program will send the second round of payments to Utah residents for August in one day. Residents who receive help with groceries will see their direct SNAP payments, worth up to $1,330, by Friday.

Utah sends out benefits on three dates throughout the month, Aug. 5, 11, and 15, and beneficiaries get their payments based on the first letter of an individual's last name.

SNAP benefits are loaded onto an electronic benefit transfer card used to purchase eligible food items, similar to debit cards in participating stores. Eligible food includes items like bread, fruits, vegetables, meats, fish and poultry, seeds, plants to grow food, and dairy items. Alcohol, pet food, and cleaning supplies are excluded from the program.

In Utah, around 5% of the population, or 156,300 people, receive food stamps. Those interested in applying can do so through the Utah portal called myCase. Residents can also apply at an employment center or mail an application.
