P-EBT CARDS
UPDATE: More P-EBT benefits will be added by September 30. Learn more HERE
The Department of Transitional Assistance (DTA) has been working with the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) to provide emergency EBT funds to eligible families. The DTA will be communicating directly with eligible families, if you have not heard from them already. If you would like more information, please visit the following websites:
Massachusetts P-EBT
Pandemic P-EBT
If you do not receive DTA benefits and do not get a P-EBT card in the mail by early June, call Project Bread’s FoodSource Hotline at (800) 645-8333 (TTY 800-377-1292).
The Massachusetts EBT vendor was not able to change the automated prompts you hear when you call to PIN a card, and unfortunately, some of the automated instructions are inaccurate for P-EBT cards. Instead, please follow the steps below:
- Call the EBT card phone number on the back of your P-EBT card: 800-997-2555.
- Enter your P-EBT card number (it is an 18-digit number).
- You will then be prompted incorrectly to enter the last four digits of your Social Security number. Do not enter the last 4 digits of your Social Security number. For the P-EBT cards, you must enter the last four digits of your child's case number that was provided on the DTA letter you received in the mail.
- Then enter your child's date of birth using a two-digit month, two-digit day, and four-digit year (example: 04/06/2005).
