1. Covid boost worth 15% is ending

Households have seen their food stamps boosted by 15% during Covid, but this support will end on September 30.

The boost provides about $27 extra per person, per month, or more than $100 more per month for a household of four.

2. New permanent hike of 27%

Once the temporary boost ends, the food stamps will get a permanent increase of around 27% from October 1.

It means the average monthly per person benefit will rise from $121 to $157 – a boost of $36.

However, the amount varies between states – you can check how much you’ll get in our guide.

The new support will be available to all households claiming food stamps.

The aid, approved by President Joe Biden, was formally announced by Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack in mid-August.
