New York SNAP Recipients to Receive Maximum September Benefits

ALBANY, N.Y. (WENY) – All New Yorkers enrolled in the SNAP benefits program will receive the maximum level of food benefits this month.

This will bring in roughly $234 million in federal funding into the state’s economy.

Those households already near or at the maximum benefit level, which for a family of four is $835, will receive a supplemental payment of at least $95.

SNAP households in all counties outside of New York City should see the extra benefits post sometime between Tuesday, September 13th and Monday, September 26th.
