Every October 1st, SNAP benefits are adjusted to reflect changes in the cost of living. As a result, SNAP recipients may see changes in their benefit amounts this fall. Depending on individual circumstances, the amount of the monthly SNAP benefit may remain the same, increase or decrease on October 1st to reflect the cost of food.
