NextImg:Food stamps: Texas's direct payments for August worth up to $1,691 to wrap up in 13 days

Texas's August Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program payments, worth up to $1,691, will wrap up in 13 days.

The payment amounts depend on recipients' household size — single households receive $281, and eight-member households receive $1,691, according to Texas's Health and Human Services Commission website. Larger families are granted $211 more for every additional member.

Recipients of SNAP in the Lone Star State will receive their payments sometime over the next 13 days, and all recipients will be covered by the middle of August. Texas's SNAP program issues payments through the first 10 business days of the month, with the receipt date depending on a person's Eligibility Determination Group number.

Eligibility depends on the household's income. A single-person household cannot make more than $1,869 per month, while a five-person household cannot make more than $4,465.

The funds are loaded onto a Lone Star Card, which functions as an electronic benefit transfer card. The funds are automatically loaded onto the card on the issuance date.

Texas has work rules in place for recipients ages 16-59. Participants must either work in a job, actively seek one, or work in an approved work program. Recipients cannot quit their job without good reason.

SNAP benefits can only be spent on food and nonalcoholic drinks. SNAP is active across all states and Washington, D.C., with slight differences between each program.
