The maximum income to qualify for food stamps, also known as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), varies depending on the household size, gross income, net income, and asset tests. In Oregon, the gross income limit for households with any household members who are 60 or older or have a disability that dont meet the asset test is 200% of the federal poverty level. For example, a family of three with no income would receive the maximum benefit of $766 per month in fiscal year 2024.

According to Benefits.gov, the maximum income level per year for a household of one is $18,954, and for a household of two is $25,646. However, this information may not be applicable to all states, and it is important to check the eligibility requirements for the specific state in which the applicant resides.

It is also important to note that eligibility requirements for SNAP may vary depending on the households circumstances. For example, if the household has a member who is 60 or older or has a disability, they may be exempt from the gross income, net income, and/or asset tests. Additionally, the program helps people pay for groceries, learn about nutrition, and get job training and support. If you need help to see if you qualify, you can apply online, by phone, or in person at a local office.
