EBT Cards

In the United States, Electronic Benefit Transfer ("EBT") cards are a form of ID issued by state governments to facilitate the payment of benefits from federal and state-run needs-based public assistance programs. They are currently used for distributing benefits under programs such as TANF (commonly called "Welfare") and SNAP (commonly called "food stamps"), although their use could be expanded to other programs in the future as paper vouchers and checks become obsolete.

If we're talking about Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP aka food stamp) benefits, the answer is, generally, no. There are some exceptions like seeds to grow food with. In Alaska, one can get fishing and hunting supplies. An EBT card may have other benefit dollars (from TANF) and these don't have the same restrictions.

Can you use an EBT card in a different state?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yes you can. However if you are moving you will have to reapply in that state. You cannot get assistance in two state for that month. They will make you wait until you benefits have ended completely in the previous state. But, yes you can. I moved from KS to AZ and used mg benefits just fine. They do this for the reason i stated above. People move all the time and need the access to the benefits.

Can soda be purchased with ebt?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

You cannot buy alcohol with EBT Food Stamps. EBT is for the food you need to survive, not for things you do not need. It is for FEEDING your family, not for giving you a buzz. If there is money on your EBT cash benefits account, then technically, you could go to an ATM and withdraw cash to buy alcohol, but it should not be done. Cash Benefits is to buy necessities such as toilet paper and clothes. If after all necessities are bought, if there is anything left, then it should either be not used or returned to the government. People abuse the government programs by taking more than they need, and that contributes to the current status of our economy.

Can you use an Indiana EBT card in Ohio?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The Ohio EBT (electronic benefit transfer) card (also known as the Ohio Direction Card) is a prepaid debit card product and may be used anywhere that the Quest logo is presented.

Unfortunately, there are few grocery locations in Texas that process Quest transactions, so you may be challenged using your card to buy groceries while in Texas.
