SNAP benefits in Maine are delivered based on the recipient’s date of birth. Those born on days ending in zero or nine have already received their benefits on Thursday, while those born on days ending in one or eight can expect to see their benefits on Friday.
For the remaining food stamp recipients, individuals born on days ending in two or three will receive their benefits on August 12, those born on days ending in four or seven will receive theirs on August 13, and individuals born on days ending in five or six will receive their monthly benefits on August 14.
