Valentine’s Day is quickly approaching, and many Americans use some of their SNAP Food Stamps benefits to celebrate with their partner or family. Fortunately, some states send this benefit in February, before February 14th.
However, some other states will send the check a few days later. The exact time of receiving SNAP Food Stamps on the EBT card is determined by a variety of factors, one of which is undoubtedly the state in which we live.
Unlike other benefits, such as Social Security, which follow a federal calendar, SNAP Food Stamps are paid on a state calendar. As a result, some Americans living in one state may receive this payment before others living in another state.
Who gets SNAP Food Stamps before Valentine’s Day?
Valentine’s Day will be celebrated next Friday, February 14th, as usual. As a result, if we have money on our EBT card before that date, we can use it to do something special, as long as we intend to purchase some of the products eligible for this benefit.

What is the maximum amount of SNAP Food Stamps in 2025?
Each eligible member can receive a maximum of $292 in SNAP Food Stamps. However, not all recipients of this benefit can receive such a large sum. It all depends on your personal situation.
If more than one member of the family qualifies for SNAP Food Stamps, each can receive up to $292. However, everything will be determined by the family’s overall situation, as well as their income and needs.
