It has been confirmed by the Social Security Administration that retirees will receive their 2025 COLA boost in 2025. SNAP participants, however, have already begun to get the 2025 COLA as USDA began distributing checks with the increase in October 2024.
In this manner, SNAP users might receive more funds without having to wait until the next year. The COLA rise for Food Stamps is far smaller than the SSA’s, which was 2.5%, while the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program’s was just roughly 0.34%. This is the drawback.
In October 2024, SNAP benefits in Florida were discontinued due to COLA
Applications and payouts for Food Stamps are handled by each state. For this reason, the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program is sent by the State of Florida through October 28.
All of the monthly payments have already been disbursed by other states. In several states, such as Vermont or Alaska, all benefits are paid out in one paycheck.
The case number that SNAP beneficiaries have is used by Florida to organize paydays. In Florida, the case number is read backwards and the tenth digit is omitted, leaving only the ninth and eighth digits.
