SNAP Minimum Payments

Official source

New Jersey has a minimum monthly SNAP benefit amount of $95. If you apply for SNAP and are approved to receive the federal minimum payment or any amount less than $95, New Jersey will add a supplemental payment so that the amount you receive equals $95.

The supplemental payment will be automatically added to your Families First Card along with your regular benefit the first full month you are eligible. If you are approved in the middle of a month, you will receive your first supplemental amount the first full month you receive your benefits.

For example, if you are approved for $23 in SNAP benefits, you will receive an additional payment of $72 from the state so your total benefit amount is $95.
