One of the big differences that United States citizens may see between SNAP Food Stamps payments and others such as Social Security is the organization of the remittances. And is that Americans who can get this benefit to buy food should keep in mind that they depend on the State in which they live.
In this sense, in some States we could get the check earlier than in others. Thanks to this organization, Americans can know more or less on which day of the month they will enjoy the SNAP Food Stamps check, although it is true that in some States these beneficiaries have the money already available very soon and others have to wait until the end of the month to be able to use it.
Regardless of the State in which we live, if our SNAP Food Stamps check is accepted we will be able to get it every month. This is important to keep in mind, as some people think they may lose their check, but this is not the case. Also, if we do not get it on time, we could wait a few days and claim the amount from the USDA.
Which states are sending SNAP Food Stamps this week?
There are some United States states that may send out the check this week. Other states will surely send SNAP between the 1st and 2nd of February the payment of the benefit. These days will be Thursday and Friday of this week, so all Americans living in those states will be able to enjoy the money shortly.
This is the list of states that will send the payment in the next few days:
- Alaska: February 1
- Arizona: February 1 to 13

Just because a state does not appear on this list does not mean that its citizens will not get SNAP Food Stamps payments. What it does mean is that the payment will come, but a little later.
Also, remember that the EBT card is key to knowing whether or not we have gotten the money. So check your EBT card balance to see if your state has already sent you a SNAP Food Stamps check and you have it available for use in the near future.
What is SNAP?
SNAP, which stands for Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, is a federal assistance program in the United States that provides eligible low-income individuals and families with funds to purchase food. It was formerly known as “food stamps.” SNAP benefits are distributed through an electronic benefits transfer (EBT) card, which can be used like a debit card at authorized grocery stores, supermarkets, and farmers’ markets to buy a variety of nutritious food items. The program aims to alleviate hunger and improve the nutritional well-being of vulnerable populations by offering financial support for essential groceries, ensuring access to food for those in need.
