What can you tell me about Snap(EBT card )?

Question

I would like to know if it can be used at the following stores in Honolulu.

★ Nijiya
★ Mitsuwa
★ Walmart
★ Hmart
★ 88 Pal Palu Supermarket(Korean Supermarket in Keamoku)
★ Palama
★ JJ Bakery
★ Liliha Bakery (not a restaurant, but a place to buy bread, coco puffs, etc)
★ Burg
★ Kulkul
★ Cake M
★ Long's
★ Walgreens
If you know of any other stores that you thought were available but were not, I would like to know the specific names.

I know that the EBT card cannot be used in restaurants, but can it be used in places that sell take-out that are not warm, such as the little sushi restaurant in Kapahulu ? Can't I use it because it is treated as prepared food ?

. ?
Can the balance be carried over to the next month or later ? or is it invalid if not used within the month ?

I will be receiving my card soon and wanted to know in advance. I wanted to know in advance.

Thank you very much for your help 🤲.

# 1 tell us

Information is updated immediately, so you should call and check yourself before you go to the store.

Last month, the above were available at Longs and Walmart.

I was told that KURUKURU and Burg are not supported.

Thank you for the prompt information.
It is indeed best to check each time. Please keep us informed about the stores and balances that were not available.

U ~ Well, let me just tell you, there are still many Japanese who lost their jobs due to the pandemic, but changed their jobs, part time, etc., changed their minds and are living their daily lives working in a difficult working environment. It is certainly the right of low-income people to receive EBT and other benefits.
I don't know what you are talking about, but I would like you to realize that the cost of EBT is paid for by the taxes of the people who are working in those difficult circumstances. I think that your post is more about making the most of your rights than gratitude.

#4 zzz I feel for you. It's hard for us no-income savers to live on our savings, but it's also hard for those who are able to work.

As I commented earlier in ♯ #2, you can find out by checking the phone yourself, so let's not be too public about it here. > #1 Topix.

Topic.

I am still currently unemployed.
I know there are plenty of jobs available for some occupations.

However, we have a couple who both have serious chronic illnesses and disabilities, and one is already a senior citizen.
Due to their illnesses, it is difficult for them to stand for long periods of time, and the jobs they can do are physically limited, so they have not been able to find work yet.
Healthy people will never know what it is like to have a chronic illness or disability, and I don't expect them to understand.

Some people may think that we are exercising our rights even though we don't work, but there are people who are unable to work for various reasons.

Snap has applied and been approved without any falsehoods, and we are grateful to be able to use it.

We entered our SSN and it was obvious that we were not able to find a new job and Approved.

We Carried over the next month, as the rep said.

If you create it online, you can check to see if the receipt and balance match.

You say you are currently unemployed, were you working before ?
If you were working, why not apply for disability benefits at the Social Security Office? Social Security Office and apply for disability benefits ?.

Just to be clear, those who are unemployed and receiving Rent Assistance are not eligible.

Currently, there is no Mortgage Assistance, so those who are living on savings and have monthly Mortgage payments,

who can submit a statement showing the balance and monthly payments, may apply.

I know what others are saying

I know what you want to eat here ?

and you go out of your way to ask questions

and even put a star in the name of the restaurant, and then suddenly you bring up seniors and disabilities.

I'm sure you get disability assistance and social security ?

since this is a place for all kinds of people

where can I use it ?

with obvious glee. You should refrain from asking such a counter-intuitive question.

A decent working person works

harder to make ends meet with daily groceries than with sushi and cakes.

How long will Mr. Corona

> ask him about it, and he will suddenly come up with seniors and disabilities.
> People who work decently hard work hard to make ends meet with daily ingredients rather than sushi and cake.

I really felt that.
We get protection from the state through taxes collected from working people.
Don't you think we should first use it to buy the minimum amount of food we need to survive? If you are a sane person.

I happened to see a video on YouTube the other day, and I was on the verge of homelessness with my two children before, and I heard about food stamps
from a friend and did some research. However, I had a strange sense of pride, and in the end I managed to get by without assistance.
Looking back, I wish I had received food stamps because I was really struggling. That's what aid is for.
I still feel bad that I put my pride first and made my children live on
cup noodles and water for a few weeks, especially if they have children.
We should be grateful to receive them when we need them and work hard until the day comes when we don't need them.
This video made me proud of the pride that people have in those who are breaking free from receiving benefits forever💪

Lord

I was rude to those who are disabled and unable to work.

I think they deserve support from the government.

I know a person who lives with two adults

and receives support from the government, yet there are people who complain about the food rations

they receive and go to the extent of asking for it

and I just couldn't help but think of that person. I was overlapping with that person.

It would be nice if there were more places where EBT could be used.

Good luck.

Topic.

Thank you so much for taking the time to write to us.

My unemployment insurance benefits ended in September, and after that my income was only for one Social Security.

My job search hasn't been going so well with no contact from anyone, but I'm not going to give up.
If I can find a job, I think I can and should be able to live without assistance with Social Security and my salary, even though I am barely making ends meet as before.

Corona also has no shortage of causes for concern, such as the outbreak of Omicron stock, but I hope that you will take care of yourself and have a safe holiday season.

Thank you very much.
