SNAP benefits are provided monthly on an electronic debit card that can be used to buy food at most grocery stores.  \nThe Indiana Family and Social Services Administration’s Division of Family Resources (DFR) administers the SNAP program in Indiana.  \nHow can SNAP help me?  \nSNAP provides supplemental nutrition for working families, seniorsand other Hoosiers who qualify for this assistance.  \n• SNAP benefits allow you to spend less of your own money on food, freeing up more of your money for other critical living expenses.  \n• Your SNAP benefit card can be used to buy food at most major retailers, select convenience stores and even some farmers’ markets.  \n• If used wisely, SNAP can help you improve the nutritional content of your meals.  \nSNAP employment and training program  \nOur Indiana Manpower Placement and Comprehensive Training (IMPACT) program offers SNAP recipients free services to  \nbuild job skills and find employment. If you need help finding a job, need to meet the work requirement or are currently working  \nand want to increase your skills, IMPACT may be able to help you.  \nHow do I apply for SNAP?  \nYou can visit our website at SNAP.IN.gov to apply online.  \nYou can also call 1-800-403-0864 to request an application be sent to you, or visit a local DFR office to apply in person. DFR local office locations are available [at SNAP.IN.gov](at SNAP.IN.gov)[ ](at SNAP.IN.gov)[or by calling 1-800-403-0864.](or by calling 1-800-403-0864.)  \nHow much will my SNAP benefits be each month?  \nThe amount of benefits your household receives each month depends on the number of people in your household and your monthly net income. It is based on a table determined by the federal government since SNAP is governed by the federal government but administered by state government.  \nWhat are the income limits?  \nFor SNAP, there are two income limits considered for eligibility: Gross and net. Gross income is your total income, before taxes or any other deductions. Some deductions are allowed, like housing costs, child support payments, child care or dependent care payments, and monthly medical expenses over $35 for people who are at least 60 years old or who have disabilities. The amount leftover after these deductions is called net income.  \nMost households have to meet both gross and net income limits. If everyone living in your household receives Supplemental Security Income (SSI) or Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), you do not need to meet any income limits.  \nWhat are the resource (asset) limits?  \nCash, checking and saving accounts are examples of resources. The home you live in is not counted as a resource. Vehicles could count as a resource depending on their [use. Go online to](use. Go online to SNAP.IN.gov)[ SNAP.IN.gov](use. Go online to SNAP.IN.gov)[ ](use. Go online to SNAP.IN.gov)under SNAP frequently asked questions to see the current resource  \nlimits. If everyone living in your household receives Supplemental Security Income (SSI) or Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), resources are not countable for SNAP.  \nWho can qualify for SNAP and are there exceptions?  \nSNAP eligibility is based on the size of your household, your monthly income and resources being under certain limits. Go online to SNAP.IN.gov to see the current household monthly income limits or to use a screening tool to see if you might qualify for benefits.  \nIndividuals in your household may not be eligible for SNAP benefits because:  \n• They are boarders or they live in institutions  \n• They are non-citizens of the United States  \n• They have intentionally broken program rules  \n• They do not comply with Social Security number requirements  \n• They choose to work fewer than 30 hours per week without good cause  \n• They were working at least 20 hours per week and quit without good cause  \n• They ar","cbCaioo047zcENNm","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaioo047zcENNm","pdf",295575,"English","# What is SNAP?\n# How can SNAP help me?\n# SNAP employment and training program\n# How do I apply for SNAP?\n# How much will my SNAP benefits be each month?\n## What are the income limits?\n## What are the resource (asset) limits?\n# Who can qualify for SNAP and are there exceptions?\n# Important warnings\n# Will SNAP benefits provide for all of my household’s food needs?\n# When will I get my benefits?","[{\"question\":\"What is SNAP and who administers it in Indiana?\",\"answer\":\"SNAP is a federal program that helps people with low income buy food for good nutrition.
