Texas EBT Deposit Dates 2026
In Texas, SNAP benefits are deposited to your Lone Star Card between the 1st and the 28th of the month. Texas runs two schedules based on your EDG (Eligibility Determination Group) number: households certified before June 1, 2020 are paid on the 1st–15th by the last digit of the EDG number; households that first applied after June 1, 2020 are paid on the 16th–28th by the last two digits.

Your EDG number is on your benefit letters and in the Your Texas Benefits app. If you were certified before June 1, 2020 and have stayed on SNAP since, you keep the early (1st–15th) schedule.
Deposits arrive on the same calendar day every month, including weekends and holidays — EBT deposits are electronic and do not wait for business days.
