WIC EBT is an electronic process where the food benefits are automatically added onto a card, similar to a debit card. However, do be sure to use up all of your benefits before they expire, because they won't roll over to the next month.EBT stands for Electronics Benefit Transfer. You don't have to buy everything from your shopping list all at once-just shop for items as you need them.For instance, if you have 2 eligible children and they each get 2 loaves of bread a month, you'll have credit for 4 loaves of bread in your account. Your balance will include all of the items for your family members.It will also make it clear which items do not qualify. Your shopping list will show the exact amounts and types of foods that you can buy, including which brands are approved.This will depend on how many children under the age of 5 live in your household, as well as whether you get any WIC benefits for yourself, so don't base your shopping on anyone else's list. It's a good idea to look over this list carefully before you start shopping. You'll be given a list with all of the food that you can use your WIC card for.
Go over your WIC shopping list so you know what you can buy.
