Guam Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)
Guam's territorial implementation of SNAP provides monthly EBT food benefits for eligible low-income households. For caregiver households, SNAP can help stabilize food costs while preserving special federal rules for households with elderly or disabled members.
What it offers
Monthly food benefits issued on a Guam EBT card. FY2026 regular SNAP income limits for Guam use the same 48 states/DC/Guam/Virgin Islands table: gross monthly income limits from $1,696 for one person to $5,867 for eight, and net monthly limits from $1,305 to $4,513. Guam maximum monthly allotments are higher than the 48-state table: $439 for one person, $806 for two, $1,157 for three, $1,465 for four, and $2,637 for eight. Federal SNAP resource limits are $3,000, or $4,500 when the household includes a member age 60 or older or disabled.
Questions that decide eligibility
GiveCare prepares the questions; the program makes the decision. Bring these to the call or the application:
- 01
Does the person receiving care live in Guam?
Residency is usually the first thing a program checks.
- 02
What are the current income and asset limits, and whose income counts?
Our record lists gross monthly limit around $1,696 for a household of one, 130% of the federal poverty level, or an asset limit around $3,000 — limits change, so confirm the current figures.
- 03
Does the VA disability rating meet the program’s minimum (our record lists null%)?
- 04
Which citizenship or immigration statuses does the program accept, and which documents show it?
- 05
Do the work hours meet the minimum (our record lists null hours)?
- 06
Is there a caregiver-specific department, coordinator, or support line? Ask for it by name.
Many agencies have one that isn’t advertised on the website.

What documents do you need from us to start an application?
- 08
Is there a waitlist right now, and how long is it?
