SY21-22 Summer PEBT Benefits Issuance Update

 PER HHSC:

To request a review, call the P-EBT Call Center at 833-442-1255, Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Central time.

After your request is submitted, HHS will review the benefit decision and contact your child's school for more information. The review process can take two to five weeks to complete.

If the review determines that your child was eligible for more school year P-EBT benefits than they received, those benefits will be issued to your Lone Star Card or P-EBT Card.

Requests for review of a benefit decision can only be submitted once per household, and all review decisions are final.

The RFR process does not open until January if you have families that didn’t get their benefits. 

PEBT Summer benefits have begun being issued, but the process takes approximately two weeks to complete. Please let your LEAs know to ask families to wait until this coming Monday, December 12^th, before reaching out to HHS regarding non-receipt of benefits.
