In October, most states sent the monthly SNAP payouts. That’s why so many people in the US are waiting for Food Stamps. In the 48 states that are adjacent to Alaska, the largest payment for a family of eight is $1,756 after cost-of-living adjustments.
Some states, like Hawaii, Guam, and the U.S. Virgin Islands, will send more money because they have higher costs of living than Alaska. There have been no changes to the amounts because of the COLA. Instead, people in Hawaii got less money. That’s why buyers are very unhappy with the new 2025 COLA.
