NEW MEXICO (KRQE) – With the end of the federal public health emergency, New Mexico is preparing to issue the final round of pandemic-related Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) payouts.
On May 11, 2023, President Biden ended the country’s formalized COVID-19 emergency order. And with that, pandemic-related benefits are ending as well. New Mexico will issue a final round of childcare P-EBT in the upcoming months.
Childcare P-EBT will be issued on a monthly basis starting in April. By August of 2023, the final P-EBT childcare issuances (tied to the months of April and May 2023) will be distributed, according to the New Mexico Human Services Department (HSD).
