Replacement of Stolen Benefits

Contact your state agency to report stolen SNAP benefits.

Households have 30 calendar days after the state has started their plan (June 2, 2023) to submit a retroactive claim. Report theft within 30 days of discovering and submit claim form within an additional 10 calendar days. Submit reports and claims by mail, phone, or in-person at local offices. The state has 30 business days to validate the claim.

Benefit Availability: Benefits for approved claims are issued within 30 business days after the date of claim submission. You must re-PIN your card, but we strongly advise you to replace the card.
