Get SNAP guidance from your state

Your state SNAP agency determines eligibility and benefit amounts. Income limits, deductions and household rules can vary. There are special rules for older adults and people with disabilities.

Benefit estimates are temporarily unavailable. We withdrew the previous calculator because its figures and eligibility rules were outdated. A previous estimate from this site should not decide whether you apply.

Official eligibility and application information

• Find your state SNAP office and application in the USDA directory.
• Read USDA eligibility guidance and ask your state agency about your household.
• View USDA benefit tables and their effective dates.

You can still apply through your state agency. If you need food while waiting, find nearby food assistance.
