Due to the ongoing federal government shutdown, November SNAP benefits will not be issued at this time.

Once the federal government shutdown ends or other federal funding is provided, all missed benefits will be issued retroactively. SNAP households will continue to be updated on the status of SNAP benefits through the OTDA webpage: otda.ny.gov/shutdown, myBenefits, ebtEDGE, and through text messages to SNAP households.
