OLGT 2021-8: Cross Program: Pandemic EBT Updates

DTA issues P-EBT benefits to active DTA households as well as households that do not currently receive DTA benefits but include children who receive free or reduced-price school meals. P-EBT benefits can be used anywhere that SNAP benefits are accepted

The Department is gradually implementing system enhancements to make it easier for P-EBT clients to access information about their benefits. Effective Thursday, January 21, 2021, P-EBT clients whose benefits are paid on a P-EBT card, can view their account balances in real time on the P-EBT Case Information page on DTAConnect.com. This option is not available on the DTA Connect mobile app.

Additionally, a video page has been added to the P-EBT website (www.MAp- EBT.org). The videos provide useful instructions that will assist P-EBT clients who need to activate their P-EBT cards; PIN their P-EBT cards; replace their P-EBT cards and more.
