SNAP Schedule: When Georgia Recipients Can Expect June 2022 Benefits To Drop
Georgia’s SNAP benefits are administered and operated by the Georgia Division of Family & Children Services. The DFCS deposits monthly SNAP benefits to low-income households through the Georgia EBT card to help boost the food budget of eligible families.

Your Georgia SNAP EBT card can be used at most grocery stores and some retail locations. Look for stores displaying the EBT/Quest sign. Your benefits can be used to purchase most food items, excluding foods and drinks that are hot at the point of sale.
If you’re over the age of 60, living on a permanent fixed income and other members of your household are not working, you may qualify for Senior SNAP. Senior SNAP is a simplified application process for seniors.
You can apply online for SNAP through the Georgia Gateway online portal or by contacting your local DFCS office. If you’ve never had a case, the DFCS has stated that it typically takes five to seven days at application to receive your EBT card. At review, you should receive benefits on the normal schedule. If your case has been closed and you’re being recertified, it takes two days for benefits to post to your EBT card.
It takes up to 30 days for applications to be completed, but you may qualify to get benefits within seven days if you have very little or no income.
