Having enough is a concern on many people’s minds as they are planning ways to budget and stretch their SNAP benefits (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program). The recent announcement that February’s benefits will be deposited early, around January 20th is important to know so people can plan and budget accordingly! Some people may consider setting aside that benefit until later in February to make sure it lasts until the next deposit, as there will be no deposit in February.
