CalFresh Payment Schedule August: As August gets closer, a lot of people in California are looking forward to getting their CalFresh benefits, which help them plan their grocery shopping and make sure they always have access to healthy food. CalFresh is the state’s version of the government Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). It gives low-income people and families monthly money through an Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) card.
CalFresh benefits are given out based on the last digit of each recipient’s case number. This makes sure that the payment process is organized and reliable. These payments are sent out within the first ten days of every month. Knowing the exact times can help people plan their shopping trips better.

Based on the last number of the case number, here is the payment plan for August 2024:
Your first step in applying for CalFresh is to go to the Get CalFresh website and fill out the online registration form. The social services office in your county will call you within two weeks to set up a qualifying interview after you send in your application. It will take about 10 days to get your EBT card in the mail if your application is accepted.
To apply over the phone, however, you may contact your local California Department of Social Services (CDSS) office at (866) 613-3777. Prepare to present the relevant documentation, including evidence of your income, identity, and, should necessary proof of immigration status be required.
Once registered for CalFresh, you may monitor your benefits and payment schedule. To view how your CalFresh payments are progressing, go on to the Benefits Cal application. This online tool shows your remaining debt as well as when your next payment is due.
If you would want further assistance or would rather not use the online approach, you may call the CalFresh hotline at 1-877-847-3663. The service can answer any questions you might have and track your payment. Visit your local CDSS office to personally seek assistance as well.
