The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) provides essential support to low-income families in Florida, helping them purchase nutritious food through monthly deposits to Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) cards.
For those relying on this assistance, understanding the exact payment schedule is crucial. In July 2025, the state’s SNAP benefits will be disbursed in accordance with specific case number criteria, ensuring recipients receive their benefits in a timely manner.
For many, these benefits represent a critical lifeline, offering support to families struggling to meet their nutritional needs. But with each month’s deposit spread across various dates, it’s important to know when exactly to expect these funds to be available.
Understanding the SNAP Payment Dates for July 2025
According to the Florida Department of Children and Families, SNAP payments for the month of July 2025 will be distributed between the 1st and 31st.
The payment date is determined by the ninth and eighth digits of the case number, which are read backward (discarding the tenth digit). Recipients will receive their deposits based on the last digits of their case numbers, ensuring a structured and fair disbursement process.
For example, case numbers ending in 00-33 will see their deposits on July 1st, while case numbers ending in 34-66 will receive their benefits on July 2nd, and so on.
Payments will continue through the month, with deposits concluding on July 28th-31st for case numbers ending in 96-99. For most recipients, funds are deposited at midnight on the assigned date and are generally available by the following morning.
These precise dates help individuals and families plan their grocery shopping, ensuring they have access to the resources they need to maintain a healthy diet throughout the month.
Maximum and Minimum SNAP Benefit Amounts
The amount of SNAP benefits a household receives depends on its size and income level. For a single-person household, the maximum monthly benefit is $292, while a family of four can receive up to $975.
Larger households are eligible for more, with an additional $220 per person after the seventh member. The full list of maximum monthly amounts by household size is as follows:
- 1 person: $292
- 2 people: $536
- 3 people: $768
- 4 people: $975
- 5 people: $1,158
- 6 people: $1,390
- 7 people: $1,536
- Each additional person: $220
However, even smaller households receive vital support, with a minimum amount of $23 for households with one or two people. Larger households do not have a specified minimum, but their benefits will be determined by their size and income.
SUNCAP Cash Assistance for Florida Residents
In addition to regular SNAP benefits, Florida also offers cash assistance through the SUNCAP programme for those who also receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI). Like SNAP, SUNCAP payments are delivered via the EBT system, but they are typically issued from July 1st to 3rd, depending on the final digits of the case number.
For recipients with case numbers ending in 00-33, benefits will be paid on July 1st, while those with case numbers ending in 34-66 will receive payments on July 2nd. Payments for case numbers ending in 67-99 will be made on July 3rd.
This streamlined schedule ensures that recipients of both SNAP and SUNCAP benefits can rely on timely disbursements, helping them manage their finances and meet essential needs.
In Florida, the SUNCAP programme is crucial for those with SSI, offering additional financial support to individuals with disabilities or elderly residents. Combined with SNAP, these benefits help improve the quality of life for Florida’s most vulnerable populations.
