In California, CalFresh (SNAP) benefits are deposited onto EBT cards on a staggered schedule based on the last digit of your case number. The following table shows the deposit dates for each month:
| Last Digit of Case Number | Benefits Available On |
|---|---|
| 0 | 26th of the month |
| 1 | 3rd of the month |
| 2 | 10th of the month |
| 3 | 20th of the month |
| 4 | 27th of the month |
| 5 | 6th of the month |
| 6 | 13th of the month |
| 7 | 19th of the month |
| 8 | 23rd of the month |
| 9 | 30th of the month |
Important: While the state releases funds on these dates, it may take an additional 1–2 business days for the funds to appear on your EBT card, depending on banking processing times. If your deposit date falls on a weekend or holiday, benefits are typically available on the preceding business day.
For case-specific questions, contact the California Department of Social Services or your local county welfare office.
