To apply for SNAP benefits if you have never done so before, follow these steps:

See if you qualify. Most people with low incomes can get SNAP. Even though SNAP is a federal program, eligibility and application rules differ by state.

You can learn if you might be eligible by calling your state SNAP information hotline or applying online through your state’s SNAP web site.

Gather necessary documents. You will need to confirm your identity, income, expenses, and other things for your application.
Be prepared to show an ID, pay stubs, utility bills, and rent receipts.
Learn how to apply in your state. Each state has its own application form and process for helping people.
To find out how to apply for SNAP benefits in your state contact your local SNAP office.
Sometimes you can apply for SNAP online, over the phone, in a paper application you can mail or fax in, or in an interview.
Fill out, then submit the application. Make sure you answer all questions complete and honestly.
Enclose all of the information, and the documents, that are requested. Submit your application based on your state’s acceptance process for these applications.
Complete the interview. After submitting your application, most states require an interview.
This is often over the phone, but it can be face-to-face. Be prepared to answer additional questions about your situation.
Wait for an eligibility decision. Once your state agency has received your application it will determine whether you are eligible within 30 days from the date you submitted your application.
If you are determined eligible, the date that you filed for SNAP will be back-dated to when you first applied for SNAP benefits
