SNAP benefits will be distributed through May 28, 2025, in Florida. Only Texas has the same number of paydays. However, the way each State arranges eligibility for each payday is completely different. The State of Florida uses the 9th and 8th digits of the Food Stamp case number. It is read backward, though. Besides, it drops the 10th digit.
May 14th will be the day when SNAP recipients whose case number 9th and 8th digit is 46-48. If your case number 9th and 8th digit are 49-53, your money will be on your Electronica Benefits Transfer card on May 15. Others may receive it on May 16 if their case number 9th and 8th digit are 54-57. Is yours 58-60? Then, your payday will be on the 17th.

SNAP benefit payment amount
On average, a single recipient can collect $199 in the 48 contiguous States, said the CBPP (Center on Budget and Policy Priorities). Those recipients in Florida or in any of the other places, except for Alaska and Hawaii, whose household size is 1, can get up to $292.
The largest SNAP benefit payment will be for recipients whose household size is 8. These families can receive up to $1,756, or about $1,317 on average. Are you 2 in your household?
A family of 2 can receive about $364 on average or up to $536 if eligible for the full amount. Families of 3 or 4 members can get up to $768 and up to $975, or $594 or $726 on average.
