Extension of emergency SNAP benefits for June 2021
SANTA FE – New Mexico households receiving Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) food benefits will receive the maximum amount for their household size for the month of June as the state continues its response to the COVID-19 pandemic, announced the New Mexico Human Services Department.
“HSD is committed to providing these much-needed emergency benefits to New Mexicans,” said Karmela Martinez, director of the Income Support Division which administers the SNAP program, formally known as food stamps. “These benefits will continue to help many families keep food on the table.”
The emergency assistance will increase a household’s monthly benefit up to the maximum food benefit amount for their household size (see table below). SNAP recipients do not have to take any action to receive these additional food benefits as they will be placed directly on their EBT cards.
