Due to the partial federal government shutdown, the U.S. Department of Agriculture has requested states provide an early issuance of February SNAP benefits in order to utilize available funding. Wyoming families eligible for SNAP will receive their February benefit by January 20th, which means the Department of Family Services needs to process January recertification paperwork by January 15th. This is NOT an additional benefit for SNAP recipients; families who receive the early issuance will not receive another issuance in the month of February.
