If you are a recipient of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) in Texas, you may be wondering when your benefits will be available on your Lone Star Card. The answer depends on the last digit of your case number, which determines your benefit issuance date. Here is a breakdown of the SNAP benefit schedule for August 2023 in Texas.

What is SNAP?

SNAP is a federal program that helps low-income households buy nutritious food. SNAP benefits can be used to purchase eligible food items at authorized retailers, such as grocery stores, farmers markets, and convenience stores. SNAP benefits cannot be used to buy alcohol, tobacco, hot food, or non-food items.

How do I apply for SNAP in Texas?

To apply for SNAP in Texas, you need to fill out an online application at Your Texas Benefits or visit a local Health and Human Services office. You will need to provide information about your income, expenses, assets, and household members. You may also need to complete an interview and provide verification documents. If you are eligible, you will receive a Lone Star Card, which is a plastic card that works like a debit card. You can use your Lone Star Card to access your SNAP benefits at the point of sale.

When will I receive my SNAP benefits in August 2023?

The date when your SNAP benefits will be available on your Lone Star Card depends on the last digit of your case number. The case number is a 10-digit number that is assigned to you when you apply for SNAP. You can find your case number on your eligibility notice, your Lone Star Card, or by logging into Your Texas Benefits.
