Can I transfer my EBT benefits to another state?

Asked 6 months ago
No, you cannot transfer your EBT benefits to another state. Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) benefits are state-specific and can only be used in the state where they were issued. Each state has its own EBT program and sets its own eligibility requirements, benefit amounts, and rules. Therefore, if you move to another state, you will need to reapply for benefits in that state and go through their approval process. It is important to notify your current state's EBT office about your move to ensure a smooth transition and avoid any issues with your benefits. Remember to contact the new state's EBT office promptly to begin the application process and receive benefits in your new location.
