    • Any other responsible household member

    A designated authorized representative

    • Who can be a friend

    • Anyone else the applicant trusts to go food shopping and use their SNAP benefits

    SNAP benefits are placed in an electronic account that only the recipient can use.

    This system is called Electronic Benefits Transfer or EBT.

    The ebt card in pennsylvania is called the ebt access card.

    This card allows withdrawals for food purchases at grocery stores and supermarkets.

    The store uses the EBT ACCESS card to electronically subtract purchases from the SNAP account, the same as people use credit cards in these stores.

      I'm trying to find out how to apply for SNAP benefits but nothing seems to be working. I went through the COMPASS website but after entering household information it freezes on me and just gets stuck with the wheel spinning and thinking. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
