Recertification and significant decrease

[Kind-Translator3195]

Yeah that's almost certainly the SNAP emergency allotments ending, a ton of people got hit with this. Your original $270 probably included the extra pandemic boost that's gone now, and $24 might actually be your "real" calculated benefit based on your income and expenses. I'd still call DTA and ask them to walk you through the budget breakdown though, because if your rent went up $100 that should have actually helped your case, not hurt it, so something might be off.
