The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program has not yet distributed October food stamps. The COLA has increased since 2025; households of four can now receive up to $975 instead of $973.

Food Stamp recipients with four family members can receive an additional twenty-four dollars annually, even with a modest COLA increase. This is particularly beneficial when attempting to save money.

In certain states, such as Florida and Texas, you might receive a single payment or Food Stamps until October 28. All of the payments are made at once in certain states. This implies that each SNAP recipient receives the same paycheck. The complete list is as follows:

• Arizona: October 1-13
• Arkansas: October 4-13

• Florida: October 1-28

Other SNAP amounts if you are not a family of 4

This implies that the maximum amount of SNAP that a single individual can receive with the 2025 COLA increase is $292. This implies that the recipients received an additional $1, increasing their total from $291.

If you are a couple or a family of two, you can receive up to $536 instead of $535. Once more, this implied that the 2025 COLA would only result in a maximum monthly increase of $1. After COLA, a family of three can now receive $768 instead of $766.

Families with five members can receive up to $1,158 through COLA. In the past, the most amount that could be wagered on five was $1,155. Families with additional children also pay extra for the following reasons:

• 6 people: $1,390
• 7 people: $1,536
• 8 people: $1,756

Benefits could potentially increase by $220 for each additional household member receiving Food Stamps. This is because families might occasionally be substantially larger.
