In August 2011, we reviewed the FNS Recovery Act SNAP information on both the FNS agency website and the Governmentwide website at Recovery.gov - Tracking the Money. We found that the FNS budgetary estimates on the two sites were either outdated, inconsistent, or both. FNS’ June 2010 plan on Recovery.gov states that $65.8 billion over 10 years will be required to fund the Recovery Act increases to SNAP; while FNS’ agency website, which was last modified in March 2011, states that SNAP will use an estimated $53 billion to fund Recovery Act benefit increases in coming years. Neither site reflected revised budgetary estimates or estimated savings of $14.4 billion mandated by two recently passed laws that terminate funding for the additional SNAP Recovery Act benefits at the end of October 2013. FNS needs to update both websites to reflect current information in accordance with the Recovery Act’s transparency and accountability goals.

Have you received news from the Government of cuts to your current amount? I would not pay much attention to websites not part of the Government as they have their own axes to grind and points to try and make. I had not heard of the sites I saw when I did a basic Google; it's a very political thing and I try not to get too entangled until a major news source reports something.
