Sources and Methodology

EBTCheckup uses public SNAP issuance schedules, USDA resources, official state SNAP agency pages, official EBT portal pages when available, and reviewed public news sources.

Primary sources

• USDA SNAP Monthly Issuance Schedule
• USDA SNAP State Directory
• USDA SNAP Eligible Food Items

Methodology

Deposit rules are generated from reviewed public schedules and stored with source URLs and source-check dates. Purchase-rule summaries are generated from reviewed USDA and state source snapshots and then published into the static site.
