Delaware's Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program will wrap up its August Delaware payments, worth up to $1,691, in a little less than two weeks.
Created through the 1964 Food Stamp Act, the SNAP aims to improve the nutrition of impoverished Americans by supplementing their food income. The size of the payment depends on the household size of each recipient. Single-person households receive $281, while eight-member households receive $1,691, according to Delaware.gov. In households larger than eight, $211 is added for each additional person.Payments will be sent out to recipients on Aug. 23.
In order to qualify, a household's gross monthly income cannot exceed 200% of the federal poverty level. For reference, a single-person household cannot make more than $2,266 monthly, while an eight-person household cannot make more than $7,772.Like most other states, Delaware SNAP payments are loaded onto a Delaware Food First card, which functions as an electronic benefit transfer card, automatically. The card can be used like a credit card but only for food and nonalcoholic drinks.
