Idaho Snap EBT

Welcome to SNAP EBT information page for the state of Idaho.

Idaho SNAP assists tens of thousands of Idaho families, the majority of whom have children, in putting healthy food on the table each month.

The size of the household, the household’s income, and a few other factors all affect eligibility and benefit levels. Generally speaking, the benefit amount increases with household size or income.

In Idaho, there is no temporary limit on the length of a family’s SNAP benefits. The food stamp program is exempt from the two-year time restriction that is in place for other cash-assistance programs (TAFI).
