Keokuk County DHS Details
The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, commonly known as SNAP, is part of a federal nutrition program that helps qualifying low-income households purchase nutritious food. This program is designed to increase their nutritional level so that they can stay healthy.
Individuals must apply for the program and provide all the required documentation. In order to qualify, applicants must meet certain financial criteria(income, assets) and non-financial (state residency, citizenship/alien status, work registration, and other) requirements.
After the application is filed, the individual will be interviewed by a case worker and should be prepared to answer questions related to the household situation. Once it is determined that the applicant is eligible for SNAP benefits, an Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) Card will be sent to the individual via mail.
The amount of benefit provided is based on income, resources and the number of individuals in the household. SNAP benefits are issued monthly on the Electronic Benefit Transfer card. This card can be used just like a debit card at authorized grocery stores and food retailers.
Basic Eligibility:
- Meet income guidelines
- Be a citizen or legal immigrant
- All children who are born in the United States can apply even if their parents are not citizens
SNAP benefits can be used to purchase:
- Breads and cereals
- Fruits and vegetables
- Meats, fish and poultry
- Dairy products
- Seeds and plants which produce food for the household to eat.
SNAP benefits cannot be used to purchase:
- Beer, wine, liquor, cigarettes or tobacco
- Any nonfood items, such as: pet foods, soaps, paper products, household supplies
