D-SNAP eligibility (Washington)

D-SNAP (Disaster Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) provides emergency food benefits after a federal disaster declaration with the IH (Individual Household) program activated. You may qualify for D-SNAP even if you don't normally qualify for SNAP — eligibility is based on disaster-related expenses + income during the 30 days after the disaster.

• Apply at: Your local SNAP office (in person, during the D-SNAP application window — typically 7-14 days)
• Bring: Photo ID, proof of Washington residence in the affected area, proof of income, proof of disaster-related expenses (food loss, evacuation, repairs)
• Benefit: Typically equal to one month of regular SNAP, loaded onto an EBT card within 3 days of approval
• Even if you have no income, you can qualify if you experienced disaster-related expenses
