Thereof, how do I order a new EBT card?

What should you do if you need to replace or change your EBT card? Call EBT customer service, 1-800-997-2555, to report a lost or stolen card. To get a replacement card, call or go to your local DTA office. DTA will deduct a $5 replacement fee from your next TAFDC semi-monthly grant.

Subsequently, question is, how long does it take to get a replacement EBT card in the mail? Mail tests to different parts of the state show it can take up to five days for a client to receive a replacement card by U.S. Mail; however, the average is closer to three mailing days.

Keeping this in view, can I get a new EBT card in person?

You can also call DTA at 1-877-382-2363 and follow the prompts to ask for a replacement EBT card. If you ask for a new card by phone, it can take 7-10 days to show up in the mail. You can also go directly to your local DTA office to pick up a new card that day.

How do I know if my EBT card has been mailed?

Generally, there is no way to track your EBT card in the mail. However, you should be able to contact your local food stamp office to see if your card has been mailed yet.
