USDA has confirmed that there are only SNAP payments left in 12 States. The maximum amount will be up to $1,756 because they are all part of the 48 contiguous States. So that is why they share maximum benefits. Only Alaska and Hawaii will deliver higher monthly payments but in May, their are April payments have already been delivered.
Only eligible SNAP recipients can receive Food Stamps through April 28. Bear in mind that Texas and Florida are the only States that issue monthly Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits through the 28th. So, recipients in this State may need to wait longer than others. For example, Alaska, Vermont, Rhode Island, and North Dakota issue all the payments on the first day of May.
