SNAP payments of up to $292 for 1 person
Those Food Stamp recipients in the 48 contiguous States who are living on their own will receive up to $292 from USDA. Thanks to the 2025 COLA increase for SNAP, benefits are slightly higher from October 1, 2024.
If you are living in a 4-member family, you could receive up to $975, up from $973. Although there is not a big difference between the SNAP amounts in 2024 and 2025, it is better because recipients in Hawaii got a reduction instead after COLA.
The largest benefit payment will be for a family of 8. As a matter of fact, they can receive up to $1,756 after the COLA increase. Remember that many SNAP recipients do not qualify for full amounts because they have other earnings and resources.
