How to Activate P-EBT Card Online : Who Qualifies For P-EBT?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Pandemic Electronic Benefits Transfer (P-EBT) is a program that helps children who would have received free or reduced-price meals at their schools if not for the COVID-19 pandemic. In Oklahoma, the Department of Human Services (OKDHS) administers the program through funding provided by a federal grant.<\/p>\n

WHO QUALIFIES FOR P-EBT?<\/span><\/h2>\n

For the 2020-21 school year, schoolchildren must meet two important eligibility requirements:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  • Children must have been enrolled in a school district that participates in a federal meal program where meals are served at a school<\/li>\n
  • Children must qualify for free or reduced-price meals based on income\u00a0and have turned in the free or reduced-priced meals application to your children\u2019s school for 2020-21, OR be enrolled in a school that participated in the\u00a0Community Eligible Provision, Provision 2 or Provision 3\u00a0federal program in 2020-21.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    HOW DO I ACTIVATE (PIN) THE CARD?<\/span><\/h2>\n

    \u25a0 Call (888) 328-6551 and follow the prompts.<\/p>\n

    Speaking to a representative is not required to activate a P-EBT card. When prompted, enter \u20180000\u2019 for the last four digits of the Social Security Number, as SSN\u2019s are not assigned to P-EBT cases.<\/p>\n

    How Much Will Each Student Receive?<\/span><\/h2>\n

    Families of students who are eligible will receive a P-EBT benefits card equivalent to $6.82 per day\u00a0for school days in which the student was enrolled in a participating school AND received virtual instruction<\/u>. No benefits will be issued for those days in which the student received in-person instruction or was counted absent from virtual instruction. The student’s school determines the number of days a student qualifies for benefits based on the school\u2019s calendar, student attendance records, school participation and the student\u2019s free and reduced-price meal status. That data is securely transmitted to OKDHS, which loads and distributes the P-EBT benefits card.<\/p>\n
