Alaska, Hawaii, Guam, the U.S. Virgin Islands, the District of Columbia, and the 48 contiguous states have their December SNAP payment schedules available.
Nearly all of the November payments have been provided by the majority of states. Your state may offer the Disaster Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program if you experienced the effects of a natural disaster.
Through November 28, 2024, SNAP payments will only be made in the States of Florida and Texas. Food Stamps will then be distributed between December 1 and December 28, 2024.

For your reference, the precise day of your Food Stamp delivery can be found by consulting USDA’s monthly issuance schedule.
In Alaska, for instance, all participants receive their SNAP benefits on the same day, whereas in California and other states, this can happen ten times. Each selects a distinct way for qualifying for payday.
