The program initiated the disbursement of these vital payments on the 1st of the month and is scheduled to conclude the process on November 10th.
The distribution of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits, known locally as CalFresh, for November, is set to wrap up within the next nine days in California
The allotment of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits hinges on the case numbers of eligible low-income households. To illustrate, households with case numbers ending in 1 can anticipate receiving their CalFresh benefits on November 1, while those with case numbers ending in 2 will access their Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits on November 2. The progression continues until November 10, when households with a case number ending in 0 will secure their payment.
The precise amount dispensed to each household is contingent on a range of factors, including household size, income thresholds, and additional assets
For instance, a one-person household can receive a maximum of $291, while a four-person household is eligible for up to $973. Households with eight members can receive a maximum of $1,751, and an additional $219 is provided for each member beyond eight. In California, a staggering 13% of the population, translating to nearly 5 million residents every month, relies on CalFresh assistance, as reported by the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities.
