Missouri Department of Social Services is recommending that if you applied for P-EBT in June or July and have NOT heard back, please re-apply for P-EBT again by the August 20 deadline.
Please resubmit both pages of your application for it to be considered complete.
This request from MO DSS is out of an abundance of caution to make sure applications are submitted on time, so your children receive their benefit.
What is P-EBT?
Pandemic Electronic Benefits Transfer (P-EBT) is a temporary benefit for children who are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch but did not receive meals at school or day care due to closure, hybrid, or virtual learning. This benefit will help cover food costs from September 2020 through May 2021. Eligible families can receive up to $1,166 for each school-age child to spend on food.
