Keep Your SNAP Benefits Safe

IMPORTANT: Your SNAP benefits may be replaced if they were stolen by fraud. SNAP benefits stolen due to fraud must be reported within 10 calendar days of the date you discover the theft. Examples of fraud include access to your benefits by fraudulent email, text, phone, or machine, etc. It’s not fraud if you give your EBT card to someone to use or if your actual EBT card is stolen. SNAP benefits can only be replaced if the fraud happened between 10/1/22-9/30/24. A household may only have SNAP benefits replaced due to fraud twice between 10/1/22-9/30/23, and twice between 10/1/23-9/30/24.
