Dear Parent or Guardian,
You can still apply for Pandemic Electronic Benefit Transfer (P-EBT) which helps families get the food they need during the current pandemic by providing a one-time benefit of $285 per eligible child. The application has been extended until August 21, 2020.
You will have one year from the date the benefits were issued to use your P-EBT benefits. P-EBTbenefits are non-transferrable. Immigration status and the public charge rule will not affect eligibility
when applying for benefits.
If you already applied and are waiting for benefits or have received P-EBT benefits, do not apply again.
