EMERGENCY ALLOTMENT
Question: What is the Emergency Allotment?

Answer: Emergency benefits for households not receiving the max for their filling size.
SNAP households had been automatically receiving the additional allotment in the same way they receive their current benefits, after February 2023 this benefit will stop.
No additional action is needed from Oregonians already enrolled in SNAP.
Households that already receive the maximum benefit will not receive any additional benefits.

For any case specific questions, call the local SNAP branch.

COVID-19 INFORMATION: Every October the federal government makes cost of living adjustments to SNAP maximum allotments. These adjustments are based on changes to the amount of money needed to support a basic standard of living. Maximum SNAP allotments are the maximum amount of food benefits that a household may receive based on its size.

Oregonians who receive SNAP food benefits will see their food benefits increase approximately 12 percent starting in October 2022.

Example:
The maximum food benefit for a household of two has increased from $459 to $516
The maximum food benefit for a household of four has increased from $835 to $939
