If the students has received the P-EBT benefit previously, the benefit will be loaded on the existing card.
If families lost the P-EBT card they need to call the HSD Replacement Hotline at 1-800-843-8303 and NOT the regular P-EBT hotline as they cannot help constituents on this issue.
If a student is new and has not gotten a P-EBT previously it will be mailed out 7-10 business days after March 8, 2021. Parents need to try and be patient and wait until this date before inquiring or calling on the benefit.
If parents, guardian, or staff want to look at the status or change addresses please refer to the Yes NM website at https://www.yes.state.nm.us/yesnm/pandemic/pebt?execution=e1s1 . They can search by student ID, first name, last name or DOB.
For all other questions they can call the regular P-EBT hotline for HSD and PED staff can assist at 1-833-415-0569.
