SNAP benefits still distributed in 8 states

The payment schedule for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) differs from state to state depending on the number of recipients and local government systems.

The reality of each state and its institutional systems are reflected in the major differences in distribution methods and deadlines. While some may take up to 28 days, others finish all benefit disbursements in a single day.

By this time in January, the majority of states had completed SNAP distributions. Nine states are still providing assistance, though. The following is a list of these states’ distribution dates:

• 
  Florida:
  
  Until January 28
• 
  Indiana:
  
  Until January 23
• 
  Louisiana:
  
  Until January 23
• 
  Maryland:
  
  Until January 23
• 
  Mississippi:
  
  Until January 21
• 
  Missouri:
  
  Until January 22
• 
  Ohio:
  
  Until January 20 (schedule ends today)
• 
  Puerto Rico:
  
  Until January 22
• 
  Texas:
  
  Until January 28

The states listed are among the 48 contiguous states with the same maximum benefit levels, with the exception of Puerto Rico. Because of their greater cost of living, territories like Alaska, Hawaii, Guam, and the US Virgin Islands have different numbers.

SNAP Benefit Maximums for 2025 (Applicable in the 48 Contiguous States and D.C.)

Certain factors, such as household size, will affect the maximum amount that a household can get in 2025.

Numerous factors, such as the number of members, total income, and assets, influence the exact amount of benefits allotted to each household.

Based on household size, the 2025 maximum SNAP payments for the lower 48 states and the District of Columbia are as follows:

• 1-member household:
  
  $291
  
• Household of 2 members:
  
  $535
  
• Household of 3 members:
  
  $766
  
• Household of 4 members:
  
  $973
  
• Household of 5 members:
  
  $1,155
  
• Household of 6 members:
  
  $1,386
  
• Household of 7 members:
  
  $1,532
  
• Household of 8 members:
  
  $1,751
  
• For each additional person:
  
  Add $219
  

Note that the annual income threshold for eligibility for an application household is updated by the US Department of Agriculture (USDA), which funds and manages benefit distribution.

For instance, the maximum gross monthly income for a single-member household is $2,005, while the maximum income for a two-member household is $2,712.

Before applying (or recertifying your benefits, which is a regular need for all program participants), check with your local SNAP office to verify if you fulfill the income restriction requirements.
