Kansas residents will no longer receive up to $1,691 in SNAP payments after two days.
The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program: Final Payments for September
The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) is wrapping up its September payments in Kansas over the next two days. If you’re a resident of the Sunflower State, make sure to keep an eye out for your remaining payment.
Payments began on September 1st and will continue until September 10th. In Kansas, food stamps are distributed based on the first letter of the recipient’s last name. If your last name starts with S through Z, you can expect to receive your payment within the next two days.
Important Payment Schedule:
- Last names starting with S: Friday
- Last names starting with T, U, and V: Saturday
- Last names starting with W, X, Y, and Z: Sunday
If your last name begins with A or B, you already received your payment on September 1st. The schedule continues with different letters each day, ensuring that everyone receives their payment in a timely manner.
Even if you become eligible for SNAP on September 10th, don’t worry! You’ll still receive your payment for September without having to wait until October.
The maximum SNAP payments vary depending on the household size:
- Household of one: $281
- Household of four: $939
- Household of eight: $1,691
For each additional household member, an extra $211 is added to the payment.
About 195,800 people in Kansas, which is approximately 7% of the state’s population, receive SNAP benefits. These benefits are reloaded onto an electronic benefits transfer card each month and can be used to purchase healthy foods and groceries at participating grocery stores, online retailers, and farmers markets.
