SNAP (Food Stamps) 2025 COLA: November Payment Schedule with Checks Up to $3,516
According to Vibes.okdiario, The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has released the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) payment schedule for November 2024. Following the 2025 Cost-of-Living Adjustment (COLA) increase, which became effective on October 1, 2024, the maximum benefit amounts will remain unchanged until September 30, 2025.
October Payments Still Ongoing
While many Americans have already received their SNAP benefits on their EBT cards for October, some states, including Florida and Texas, will continue to process payments through October 28. This means that beneficiaries in these states may still be awaiting their funds.
