Manage my SNAP

Your benefit programs are renewed periodically through re-evaluations. Re-evaluations are necessary to make sure you qualify to keep receiving benefit services.

Using your SNAP benefits
  • You'll receive your EBT card the first time you apply and are approved.
  • If anything changes with your SNAP, including if you stop receiving benefits for some time, will be automatically reflected on your EBT benefits, so you won't need to get a new card.
  • Report any name changes and change of address right away, because your card might not be accepted at shopping locations if your card information does not match.
  • If you've lost your card, call the FIS card customer service line at 888-432-4328 to request a new card. Local offices will not issue a replacement card.
  • To check your balance on your EBT card, call the number listed on the back of your card 888-432-4328 or go online to www.ebtedge.com

Required re-evaluations

When receiving SNAP, you are required to re-evaluate periodically. When your household is due for recertification, the Department will notify you and provide you with the necessary forms required to complete the process.

Adding or removing household member

Let us know if a household member is moving in or out of your household. In order to add someone to your household, we will need information about the individual; their income, resources, and expenses; and will need verification of some of these details.

If a household member is moving out of Idaho we must end their participation in Idaho before they can receive benefits in another state.
