Eligbility For SNAP
Your household must meet certain requirements to be eligible for SNAP and receive benefits. If your State agency determines that you are eligible to receive SNAP benefits, you will receive benefits back to the date you submitted your application. Visit the Pre screening tool to see if you qualify: https://www.snap-step1.usda.gov/fns/

What Happens After You Apply
In most cases it takes 30 day to processs your application. But.. during the 30 days you must complete an eligibility interview and give proof (verification) of the information you provided. The interview is typically completed over the telephone or in-person. If you are found eligible, you will receive benefits based on the date you submitted your application.

How Long Can I Receive SNAP For?
If you are found eligible, you will receive a notice that tells you how long you will receive SNAP benefits for; this is called your certification period. Before your certification period ends, you will receive another notice that says you must recertify to continue receiving benefits. Your local SNAP office will provide you with information about how to recertify.

SNAP Work Requirements
People must meet work requirements to be eligible for SNAP. These work requirements include:
Registering for work;
Not voluntarily quitting a job or reducing hours;
Taking a job if offered; and
Participating in employment and training programs, if assigned by the State.

Failure to comply with these requirements can result in disqualification from the Program.

In addition, able bodied adults without dependents are required to work or participate in a work program for at least 20 hours per week in order to receive SNAP benefits for more than 3 months in a 36-month period.

Some special groups may not be subject to these requirements including:
Children;
Seniors;
Pregnant women; and
People who are exempt for physical or mental health reasons.

    I completed an entire online application for SNAP benefits about 3 months or so ago and was denied due to the fact that I was never able to get back in touch with anyone at any point in time. I’m having trouble with restarting another application because I can’t reset my password and username at the same time and is very frustrating and I am really really needing this help.

    I’ve been trying to complete my food stamps application since July 2021 and it’s Now September the phone doesn’t even allow you to connect to a live person know matter what time of the day you call. I haven’t gotten a notice in the mail or email of any kind. Tried all avenues and nothing has worked yet.

    I've been calling to complete my interview but the phone hangs up after it says it's going to ask 8 questions. They keep denying my application.

    I have tried 19 times,over the last week to call this number. But they always say they are busy with other clients at this time. No matter what time I call. I start at 7am, and call at 8,9,10,11,2,and 3 o'clock! This has been every day for the past week, after I completed my renewal application, I got a letter saying they needed to do a phone interview, well, that's impossible if you never answer the phone!..now I just got another letter saying,,we have not heard from you, you have until the 31st, and your case will be closed!!! I don't know what to do! They won't let you talk to No one! So how do you expect me to call you?
