How to read it
Tennessee DHS gives the example of SSN 123-45-6789: the last two digits are 89, so the participant gets SNAP on the 18th day of the month.
What the state page says
- Tennessee DHS says the day SNAP benefits are deposited is based on the last two digits of your Social Security Number.
- The Tennessee EBT cards page says the date is based on the SSN used during application.
- Each five-number block moves the date by one day: 00 to 04 is the 1st, 05 to 09 the 2nd, up to 95 to 99 on the 20th.
Which Social Security number counts
The Tennessee page ties the date to the SSN "used during application". In a household, that is the number on the application, which may not be the number of the person holding the EBT card. If your date looks wrong, check which person the case is under.
What this page does not cover
The Tennessee schedule is a one-page table. It does not say how weekends or holidays are handled, or when a first benefit after approval arrives. Benefit amounts are separate: see the SNAP benefit calculator and the maximum allotment chart. To check a balance, use the official site or phone number on your card; the EBT balance by state page lists them. This page never asks for a card number or PIN.
