Summer EBT - S-EBT

I Don't Want The S-EBT Benefits, Can I Opt Out?

Yes, you do not have to participate in S-EBT. Instead, do not activate the card. You can cut the card up and the benefits will automatically expire after 122 days.

If you change your mind, and decide you want the S-EBT benefits, call and request a replacement card.

If you choose to participate, it will not take away benefits from someone else.
