The USDA schedule indicates that SNAP recipients who meet all the requirements will receive their Food Stamps on their EBT cards in Florida and Texas. Apart from these States, others are issuing food assistance, but not for so long. Bear in mind that even if this is a Federal benefit, each State administers applications and paydays.
For example, Texas and Florida arrange payment dates differently. Even if they share the final payday in July, you need to meet different conditions to qualify for an earlier or later SNAP payment. Texas uses the Eligibility Determination Group number to distribute food assistance throughout the month. Eligible households certified after June 1, 2020, receive benefits from July 16 onward.
