In the United States, each new start of the week means the possibility of getting a new SNAP Food Stamp check on our EBT card. Each state sends out SNAP checks on different days. Therefore, we need to look at the payment schedule each month.
Unlike Social Security checks, which the Administration sends following a pattern for the entire United States, SNAP Food Stamps are independent in each State. So we need to watch out if we don’t want to get lost in organizing our household finances.
If you are still waiting for your new SNAP check, there is still time to get it. However, not all payments will arrive equally. Some have already arrived for the states we will discuss below.
The best advice in these cases is to keep track of your EBT card balance. That is the only way to be 100% sure whether or not we have gotten the Food Stamp check. Once we get it, we can use it for whatever we need.
STATES GETTING FOOD STAMPS FROM THE SNAP THIS WEEK
Below is a list of the states with the last day of this benefit. As you can see, some of these states will not receive a check on an exact day, that is, there are several days in which we could get the benefit.
In some states the payment is due this week, but some of them can still send SNAP Food Stamps during the next week.
These are the states along with the mailing days:
- Alabama: September 4-23
- Florida: September 1 to 28
- Georgia: September 5-23
- Indiana: September 5 – 23
- Louisiana: September 1 – 23
- Maryland: September 4 – 23
- Michigan: September 3 – 21
- Mississippi: September 4 – 21
- Missouri: September 1 – 22
- New Mexico: September 1 – 20
- North Carolina: September 3 – 21
- Ohio: September 2 – 20
- Tennessee: September 1 – 20
- Texas: September 1 to 28
- Washington: September 1 to 20
Just by checking the dates we will be able to see if we will get SNAP soon or not. Even so, the rest of the states have already sent this benefit. In addition, as we have already mentioned, the best way to check the payment is to see if we have the money in our EBT card.
Remember that it does not matter the amount or the year since we got this benefit. What is important in these cases is the State in which we live, since the State organization is in charge of choosing the payment days of the Food Stamps.
