According to Vibes.okdiario The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) will continue issuing monthly payments to recipients until November 28, 2024. However, after this date, only two states will still be distributing Food Stamps. It’s important to note that each state manages its own SNAP payment schedule and applications for eligible low-income families across the United States.
Some states have already completed their SNAP distributions for November. In fact, four states—Alaska, Vermont, Rhode Island, and North Dakota—issued all their benefits on November 1.

Can SNAP Benefits Be Used for Online Grocery Shopping?
Yes, SNAP benefits are accepted for online grocery shopping in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. This service began in New York in April 2019 and has since expanded nationwide, excluding only two U.S. territories: Guam and the Virgin Islands.
Some of the major retailers participating in SNAP’s online purchasing program include Amazon, Walmart, ShopRite, and others. However, the availability of retailers varies by state. To use SNAP online, shoppers simply choose from eligible food items and check out by entering their EBT card PIN securely.
Keep in mind that SNAP benefits can only be used to purchase eligible food items, just like in-store purchases. Unfortunately, SNAP cannot be used for delivery fees or other charges.
To find out if online grocery delivery is available in your area, check directly with the retailer websites. Delivery service is available in areas where the retailer can provide a full range of grocery items, including perishable goods.
