As the price of food continues to rise, the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) will continue to send extra money to individuals on top of their monthly benefits. The amount received will vary but the minimum a household will be entitled to is 95 dollars in addition to their SNAP benefits each month. The amount of extra money eligible families may receive depends on family size. Throughout the pandemic, SNAP agencies across the United States provided emergency allotments each month. The US Department of Agriculture (USDA), which oversees SNAP, will continue issuing these payments though till July 15, 2022, thought the date could be extended. Some states though, like Nebraska and Tennessee, have already phased out this added benefit, citing that their state-issued emergency or disaster declaration has expired or will expire in the current month. The amount of extra money eligible families may receive depends on family size. With more than 41.5 million Americans receiving SNAP benefits every month, it is crucial that you first register with SNAP in the state in which you live, with each state possessing a different form and process. You must also meet certain bank balance limits in order to be eligible. Households who receive SNAP benefits are expected to spend about 30 percent of their own income on food.
