According to Washington Examiner, Alaska food stamps through the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) will get their February money in just eight days. Every family in SNAP gets money on the first of every month, no matter how many people are in the family or what their last name is. One family can get a different amount of money every month in each of Alaska’s three parts. About 92,100 Alaskans, or about 12% of the population, use SNAP to help pay for their food. This means that each person in the family gets around $271 a month.
