$3,516 SNAP Payment Dates & Maximum Benefit By State In November

November 2024 marks a new round of SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) payments across the United States, with specific dates set for each state.

Payments, also known as Food Stamps, are adjusted for inflation each year via the Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA), with different maximum payment amounts based on household size and location.

Households in Alaska, Hawaii, Guam, and the U.S. Virgin Islands are set to receive the highest SNAP payments due to the higher cost of living in these areas.

Alaska provides the largest SNAP benefits, with a family of eight eligible for up to $3,516 in the most remote areas, while in other states, the maximum for a similar household size is $1,756.
