To determine which SNAP benefits are still unpaid during the month of August 2023, we must first understand some small elements involved in the payment dates. First, it should be noted that SNAP payments are administered at the state level, although the funds are poured from the federal government. This means that payments may vary from one state to another.
Also, it should be noted that the temporary payments of pandemic-related food stamps, known as emergency allowances, or P-EBT (Pandemic EBT), became ineffective since March 2023, and all households in the United States returned to normal benefit amounts, without the additional supplement.
Food stamp payments are still to be sent in these states in August 2023

SNAP benefits: Who could claim up to $1,691
The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) calculates its advantages through a range of factors, such as family size, income, and specific expenditures, among other considerations. First, the family size is considered: SNAP employs a chart of maximum monthly allocations that hinges on the number of individuals within a household, dictating the benefit extent.
To illustrate, a single-member household can secure as much as $281 monthly in SNAP benefits, while an eight-member household can obtain up to $1,691 monthly in food stamps. With each extra member added to the household, a supplementary $211 is appended to the preceding tally of household residents.
