SNAP Food Stamps payments have a timing quirk that sets them apart from other benefits in the United States. Each state pays the check on different days of the month. Therefore, depending on our place of residence we may get the payment earlier or later.
In the case of September we already have the exact date of the SNAP Food Stamps payments, so it is easy to keep track of when we will get this benefit. If you live in a State that may send SNAP checks on different days, you should keep in mind that sometimes there are internal rules regarding the sending of the payment.
In any case, during the month we will have the SNAP Food Stamps money on our EBT card. Therefore, just by checking the calendar we can get an idea of when we will get the money, but we can also just check the EBT card balance to have all the information.
