EBT schedules

Florida EBT deposit schedule

Florida loads SNAP food assistance from the 1st through the 28th of the month. The day depends on two digits in the case number. Cash assistance and SUNCAP use a shorter schedule.

Reviewed October 29, 2026. Card name used by the state: EBT card.

Verify this date with Florida Department of Children and Families. BenefitBoost is not the state agency. Schedules change, and a notice mailed to you controls if it disagrees with this page.

How to read your date

Start with the 10-digit case number on a DCF notice or in MyACCESS. Skip the last digit. The next two digits, reading from the right, are your lookup number. Example: case 1234567890. Skip the final 0, then read 9 and 8. The number 98 falls in 96–99, so SNAP is available on the 28th.
