SNAP Payments Up to $1,756 on Oct. 28 & Full November Food Stamps Schedule

The USDA has announced that the last SNAP payments for October will be issued to eligible recipients in Florida and Texas. In Florida, the payment schedule is based on the 9th and 8th digits of the recipient’s case number (read backward, excluding the 10th digit). For example, if these digits are between 96 and 99, you can expect your benefits on the 28th of the month.

In Texas, the system uses the EDG number, and payments are scheduled if the EDG ends in 42-45, 50-53, or 96-99. After these final payments, beneficiaries across all states and U.S. territories will need to wait until November 1 for the next round of SNAP benefits.
