If you live in Texas and receive SNAP benefits—also known as food stamps—you should know that the final payments for May 2025 are being issued this week. The SNAP program is managed by each state to help low-income families buy food using an EBT (Electronic Benefits Transfer) card.
SNAP benefits are an important support system for people struggling to afford groceries. Let’s take a closer look at when the last May deposits will be made, how to check your payment date, and what to expect for June payments.
May 2025 SNAP Deposits End This Week in Texas
In Texas, SNAP payments for May were sent out from May 1 to May 28, depending on your EDG (Eligibility Determination Group) number. This number helps decide when your payment will be loaded onto your EBT card.
Here’s who will get their payment on the last two days of the May calendar:
May 27 – If the last two digits of your EDG number are 93, 94, or 95, your payment should be deposited today.
May 28 – If your EDG number ends in 96 through 99, your SNAP benefits will be deposited on the final day, Wednesday, May 28.
So, if your EDG number falls in this range, keep an eye on your EBT card balance—it should be updated soon.
June 2025 SNAP Payment Schedule in Texas
Planning ahead for next month? SNAP payments in June 2025 will be made from June 1 to June 15. This applies only to those who were certified before June 1, 2020. Based on your EDG number, here is when your June payment will arrive:
If EDG ends in 0 – June 1

SNAP Maximum Payment Amounts in Texas for 2025
The amount of food assistance you receive depends on how many people are in your household. For the current fiscal year (October 1, 2024 – September 30, 2025), here are the maximum SNAP amounts in Texas:
1 person – $292
2 people – $536
3 people – $768
4 people – $975
5 people – $1,158
6 people – $1,390
7 people – $1,536
8 people – $1,756
For each additional person, add $220.
These amounts are set by the USDA (U.S. Department of Agriculture) and are based on the Consumer Price Index, which adjusts for changes in the cost of living.
What About SNAP Benefits in Other States?
The amount of SNAP support is different in some U.S. territories and states, especially where food is more expensive. For example:
In Alaska, a family of four may get between $1,258 and $1,953 per month, depending on the area. This is because Alaska has higher food prices due to transportation and geographic challenges.
Places like Hawaii, Guam, and the Virgin Islands also have different benefit amounts, adjusted to local conditions.
If you are one of the last groups waiting for SNAP benefits in May, and your EDG number ends in 93–99, your deposit is coming on May 27 or May 28. These are the final SNAP deposits for this month in Texas.
For June 2025, SNAP benefits will be sent between June 1 and June 15, depending on your EDG number. Keep your card and details ready to track your deposit dates.
Remember, SNAP is here to help families afford healthy food. By knowing your deposit schedule, you can better manage your monthly grocery spending and plan ahead with ease.
