Our SNAP benefits did not load today as scheduled.

I am panicking, I have no other grocery money right now.

I'm a homeless mom of 2 teen boys. My family could use help with gas, laundry, and upcoming bills for storage & our car payment.

Goal for this week is $300
& anything helps!

If SNAP benefits are not being paid out because of Musk's illegal coup, I may need to see similar assistance in about ten days' time.

i hate it when my renewal lines up with a weekend or a holiday. I've had to do 3 month renewals, and had hurricane evacuations affect it, too. Usually it would finally show up on the next business day, or the day after.

very hopeful about this for you!!!
(and me, my reload date is Tuesday 🤞)

OMG! I've heard people saying the memo was rescinded, but not the policy and that the payments are still "paused." Maybe it's true. If so, the shite will hit the fan soon.

Since it's Sunday I can't find anything out, but I've got someone scheduled to call me in the morning.

I'd love to know if anybody else has had the same thing happen.

it might be because you just did your review. I *always* have to call after i send in the review because they take so long to actually process it. We got our benefits yesterday so I know to govt did send them out

halaylah.bsky.social•20 days ago

That is reassuring, thank you!

sweetniko.bsky.social•20 days ago

glad i can help a little... i know how much it sucks not to get stamps when you expected them. even worse, on the weekend when you can't even get ahold of someone to figure out the issue

Last time this happened I lost benefits altogether & it took me nearly a year to get them back.

The funding freeze that was half-rescinded plus "blocked" by courts supposedly wouldn't affect individual benefits like SNAP. Supposedly. Plus Musk has been mucking around too.

Check your Venmo. (And maybe post the last 4 of your phone number for people to enter when they try to confirm.)

halaylah.bsky.social•20 days ago

Thank you! So far I haven't had an issues except Venmo not notifying me when I've got activity.

OMG. I hope it’s just a glitch.

halaylah.bsky.social•20 days ago

It may be. I just renewed, and a local friend has confirmed that she did get her benefits yesterday.

grrlintersect.bsky.social•20 days ago

Oh no, this is not OK. Withholding people‘s benefits when they are just about to make groceries more expensive is evil.

halaylah.bsky.social•20 days ago

Could've been a glitch since I just renewed. I'm hoping that's the case, but I still have no way to know how long it will take to get fixed.

grrlintersect.bsky.social•20 days ago

I hope it is just a glitch, but also I am so sorry you’re having to deal with it, especially now, no one needs that additional stress
