Food stamps: Montana April SNAP payments worth up to $1,751 to conclude tomorrow

Montana’s Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program will conclude sending its April payments, worth up to $1,751, on Saturday.

Beginning on the second, SNAP payments in Montana are distributed over five days every month. Recipients get their payments on days according to their SNAP case number, account number, Social Security number, or last name.

April’s payments are being distributed from Tuesday to Saturday.

To qualify for SNAP payments in Montana, a single-person household must have a net monthly income under $1,215, and an eight-person household must have a net monthly income under $4,214.

Household sizes determine recipients’ SNAP payment amounts. Single-person households receive $291 per month, while eight-person households receive up to $1,751 per month. In households that exceed eight persons, $219 is added for each additional person.

SNAP benefits can be used at farmers markets, grocery stores, and other participating locations. The payments are automatically loaded on electronic benefits transfer cards.
