Food stamps: Eight states sending out SNAP benefits worth up to $1,751 this week

Published July 23, 2024 1:31pm ET



With July quickly coming to a close, SNAP beneficiaries in eight states should expect to see their July payments hit their accounts by Sunday.

The funds, worth up to $1,751 for a household of eight, will be uploaded to an Electronic Benefit Transfer card, which functions as a debit card and can be used at any supermarket or grocery store that accepts the benefits. To qualify for SNAP, a household income must be at or below 130% of the poverty line — $2,072 per month or $32,328 per year. Benefits are distributed over a one-year period.
