Newbie question about food stamps

[Woody Creature]

I am able to qualify for food assistance in Colorado.
Can I use the card outside of the state it was obtained in?

Bindi says poo poo to dog biscuits. Chicken and steak will do just fine and can be purchased with an EBT. My pups had mac and cheese with tuna last night. They loved it.

something to keep in mind........several states have taken notice to EBT being used outside the state and placing restrictions on them.....Several states are now charging people who do it with fraud!

the state of Maine now requires your EBT to have a photograph inserted and the card is invalid if used outside of boundary states.....other states are now starting to do the same
