>> For example SNAP, unless there is a minor in the household, is limited to 3 months out of every 12. No, you misunderstand the limitation. You have to make a new application. There is nothing to stop a single adult from getting benefits all year long. Today, with EBT cards and online applications, it is a trivial process. How long do SNAP benefits last? SNAP benefits vary from household to household, depending on the number of people within a household, the employment status of the recipient(s), the age and health of the recipient(s), etc. For most healthy adults between the ages of 18 and 50 (without children), SNAP benefits are limited to a 3-month period, at which point the recipient will have to submit a renewal application. Most households under the SNAP program receive benefits for a 6-month period before requiring renewal. Benefit periods can range from 1 month to 3 years.
