If you’re waiting on SNAP in June, your payment date may vary
- Replies 0
If you're counting on your monthly SNAP benefits to stock the pantry or stretch your grocery budget, you might want to take a closer look at your calendar.
June payments are on the way, but depending on where you live—and even how your last name or case number ends—your deposit date could vary widely.
The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), which supports more than 40 million Americans, distributes funds through Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) cards each month.
While the program is federally funded, states handle the actual payout process.

That means each state (and territory) sets its own timeline—and some use complex systems based on case numbers or surnames.
So if you’ve been wondering when your benefits will show up, here’s what you need to know.
June 2025 SNAP deposit dates by state
Here’s the official June schedule for every US state and territory:
What’s changing with SNAP?
Beyond the timing, some states are looking to change what SNAP dollars can buy. Nebraska just became the first state to get the green light from the USDA to ban purchases of soda and energy drinks with SNAP benefits. Other states are lining up with similar waiver requests.
Critics say it’s a move to curb unhealthy eating. Supporters argue it may help SNAP dollars go further on nutritious options. Still, others are wary of setting restrictions on what low-income families can eat.
As the conversation unfolds, more updates could roll out this summer.
