Georgia SNAP deposit day, by client ID.
Enter the last two digits of the head of household’s client ID number. See the day of the month Georgia posts ongoing SNAP benefits to the EBT account and the next two dates on the calendar.
Short answer: Georgia posts ongoing monthly SNAP benefits by the last two digits of the head of household’s client ID number: 00 to 09 on the 5th, 10 to 19 on the 7th, and so on in steps of two days up to 90 to 99 on the 23rd. The rule is in DFCS SNAP policy manual section 3810. A new case gets its first benefits after approval instead, not on this schedule.

Transcribed from Georgia DHS, Division of Family and Children Services, SNAP policy manual section 3810, Benefit Issuance, read November 11, 2026. The policy says ongoing monthly SNAP benefits are posted to EBT accounts according to the last two digits of the head of household’s client ID number, and gives the ten ranges above.
How to read it
Take the client ID number of the head of household, not the case number and not the EBT card number, and look at its last two digits. Each ten-number block maps to one day, so 47 falls in 40 to 49 and pays on the 13th, while 03 falls in 00 to 09 and pays on the 5th. The pattern is a two-day step from the 5th to the 23rd: the day equals 5 plus twice the tens digit, which is the formula the finder above uses. The calculator then places that day on the calendar from November 11, 2026 and shows the following month too.
First month after approval
Section 3810 also says that approving the application authorizes the initial month’s benefits, that Gateway authorizes them in the nightly processing cycle once the case is finalized, and that the initial issuance, prorated from the application date and including any intervening months, is posted to the EBT account after that processing. In other words a newly approved household does not wait for its client-ID day; the ongoing schedule begins with the following month.
Worked example
A household in Macon has a head-of-household client ID ending in 47. That falls in the 40 to 49 block, so benefits are available on the 13th of each month. From November 11, 2026 the next issuance is Friday, November 13, 2026, then Sunday, December 13, 2026. Georgia’s policy states the day only and does not say that a weekend date moves, so this page shows the calendar day as written; the household should confirm with the Georgia EBT customer service number on the card if a weekend date matters.
What this page does not cover
Section 3810 does not describe weekend or holiday handling, so none is assumed. Benefit amounts are separate: see the SNAP benefit calculator and the Georgia income limits. To check a balance, use the official site or the number on the card; the EBT balance by state page lists them. This page never asks for a card number or PIN, and the client ID digits you type stay in your browser.
