The US Department of Agriculture has promised that Hawaii will get its last and only SNAP payment of up to $3,102 in October. The amount this state has to pay is more than the 48 states that are adjacent to it and the District of Columbia.
Hawaii has higher inflation, which is why this is the case. In case you were wondering, the COLA just went down in Hawaii. While the highest payments for people in other states and territories have gone up, people in Hawaii who get SNAP will get less money for their maximum payments.
Next SNAP payment in Hawaii
The next Food Stamp payment from Hawaii, worth up to $3,102, will be sent on October 5, according to the USDA. People who get EBT cards don’t all get money on them at the same time.
There are even people in Hawaii who got their Food Stamps on October 3 through SNAP. In Hawaii, the next Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program payment will be sent to people whose last name starts with the letter:
- First letter of their last name is: A – I: SNAP payment on November 3rd
- First letter of their last name is: J – Z: Food Stamps due on October 5th
Who can receive $3,102 from SNAP in Hawaii?
If you are a family of eight and qualified, this is the biggest payment you can get. Of course, if you have other income or benefits, this amount will go down. Even if you are 8, you can expect smaller amounts.
There is a big difference between this and the highest amount allowed in the 48 states that are adjacent to it. In most states, a family of eight can only get $1,756. That’s why this amount is $1,346 more in Hawaii. Here are all the highest amounts that can be owed in Hawaii:
1 person: $517
2 people: $948
3: $1,357
4: $1,723
5: $2,046
6: $2,456
7: $2,714
8:$3,102
Each additional member: $388
