Texas SNAP Payment Schedule
When receiving Texas SNAP benefits you are given a Texas Lone Star Card. Each month your EBT card is refilled through the Electronic Benefits Transfer system with the amount you were approved for when you applied for Texas food stamps. It is important to know when your card gets refilled each month, so that you can better plan your food stamp purchases at stores that are authorized SNAP retailers. To find out when you will receive your next SNAP payment, look at the Texas food stamp payment dates below.
