If you are wondering when your SNAP benefits will arrive in Texas or Florida for March 2025, here I bring you the fresh and reorganized information so you don’t miss out. We talk about these two states specifically because they are the only two that distribute benefits, every month, from the 1st to the 28th. Since it is March 24, there are still some groups of beneficiaries to receive their payments in the coming days.
Most of the states and territories have already finished their payment schedules, since their SNAP populations are smaller than the ones in Florida and Texas.
SNAP benefits being distributed until March 28 in Florida and Texas
It turns out that in both states, Texas and Florida, there are specific groups that will receive their funds right at the close of the month: between March 24 and 28, 2025. But not everyone will arrive on that date, so pay attention to the details.
In Texas, for example, if your home was certified after June 1, 2020 and your EDG number ends in 42-45, that day is your lucky day. In Florida, it depends on the last two digits of your case number: if it’s 96-99, mark the 28th on your calendar. Have you already reviewed your documents?
Let’s look at the list of groups receiving their payments in Texas between March 24 and 28 (households certified after June 1, 2020):
- EDG ending at 82-85: March 24, 2025
- EDG ending at 86-88: March 25, 2025
- EDG ending at 89-92: March 26, 2025
- EDG ending at 93-95: March 27, 2025
- EDG ending at 96-99: March 28, 2025
As we said before, the state manages two groups depending on when you certified for SNAP. Imagine it like a line at the cinema: those who came first get in first.
Group 1 (certified before June 1, 2020): These are the veterans of the program. Your payments fall between March 1 and March 15, depending on the last digit of your EDG number. For example, if it ends in 0, you get paid on day 1; if it ends in 9, the 15th. If today is March 23, this group already has the money in their account. Ready to go grocery shopping without worries!
Group 2 (certified after June 1, 2020): Relatively new to the program enter the scene March 16-28. Here, the last two digits of the EDG are key. For example, those finished in 42-45 receive payment on the 28th. If you are in this group and today is March 23, you are still waiting, but don’t worry: your day is about to come.
What if you don’t know your EDG number? Don’t stress. Check your SNAP notifications, or the documents they gave you when your application was approved, and you’ll find that valuable number.
Florida SNAP benefits: last payments for March 2025 are coming
In the Sunshine State, they distribute payments throughout the month, but with a peculiar system. Instead of looking at the last digits of the normal case number, they read them backwards (yes, like a puzzle). Furthermore, they ignore the tenth digit. Complicated? A little, but here are the last payment dates of the month
- EDG ending at 82-85: March 24, 2025
- EDG ending at 86-88: March 25, 2025
- EDG ending at 89-92: March 26, 2025
- EDG ending at 93-95: March 27, 2025
- EDG ending at 96-99: March 28, 2025
The maximum amounts to pay are the same as those that apply to the 48 contiguous states and District Columbia, so you can expect from $292 por one person, $536 for a two-member household, $768 for the members, and $975 for a four-member family, to $1,756 for a household of 8 members (each extra individual after 8 members will get $220 extra).
