We publish a phone number only when two independent sources agree: the USDA state directory and the state agency's own website. "n/d" means we could not confirm it, so call 2-1-1 or use the number on the back of your card.
If the money is not there
Check the date first
Deposits follow your date each month, not the first of the month for everyone.
Check for a notice
A missed renewal or interview can stop benefits. Read every letter from West Virginia's SNAP agency.
Think it was stolen?
Call the EBT number, change your PIN and ask for a new card. What to do.
