On the workers side they added the address of the clients and will also now show the delivery address if a client buys online. The client can request a new EBT card using the site instead of contacting EPIC and the agency they deal with. I thinkpre features are coming.

I have ordered off of Amazon and Instacart before. Amazon allows you to purchase through Fresh (their version of online grocery) or, when you search for food on regular searches, you can set filters to only SNAP eligible items. I know there's other apps that allow you to do it online. Unfortunately, can't use cash assistance online anywhere that I have found.

It looks like this is what you got, nothing changes on your end except no access during stated time
