10.561 is not SNAP benefits in Virginia

SNAP benefit issuance (a different CFDA) is not this cell. Mixing those series into $849,708,475.57 would invent a broader total than this cell contains. Facts available: Virginia, CFDA 10.561, $849,708,475.57, 28 awards. Caseload counts, error rates, and retailer names are unpublished.

The catalog title names state administrative matching grants for SNAP, not a ranking of local departments of social services. Dividing $849,708,475.57 by 28 yields about $30.35 million per award. Unique recipients are unpublished. 28 is not a household or county census.

Virginia geography on the SNAP-admin tag

VA is the place-of-performance code. Awards billed to Richmond, Norfolk, Fairfax, or other in-state sites can share the tag. Awards coded to Maryland, the District of Columbia, North Carolina, West Virginia, Kentucky, or Tennessee stay outside $849,708,475.57 even when activity later crosses those lines. The code does not convert $849.71 million into an EBT map.

Virginia federal spending is the all-program parent. 10.561 is one row on Virginia programs. $849.71 million is not the state’s complete federal footprint. Open State Administrative Matching Grants For The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program in Virginia for the filtered table, CFDA 10.561 for the catalog without a Virginia filter, and All spending ties for other pairs. Do not add those parents into $849,708,475.57.

Reading 28 awards under $849.71 million

$849,708,475.57 ÷ 28 is about $30.35 million per award. That average is a pass-through administrative scale, not a per-household benefit, not a median. Net obligations can include downward modifications; the total shown is the aggregate in the facts. Treat 28 as a record count, not as 28 finished fiscal years.

Without a transaction register, you cannot see how many of the 28 rows are continuations, renewals, or corrections. Later ingests can restate $849,708,475.57 without changing the join key of 10.561 and VA. USAspending obligations can be positive new awards or net of downward modifications; $849,708,475.57 is the net total supplied in the facts.

What the 10.561–Virginia pair does not prove

A large 10.561 total tagged to Virginia does not measure whether food insecurity fell, and it does not equal benefits loaded onto EBT cards. FEC donations do not fund this USAspending cell. Correlation is not causation. The headline remains $849,708,475.57 on 28 awards for SNAP administrative matching grants in Virginia.

Quote USAspending.gov and the overlay path rather than a hunger-policy story. Cite SNAP administrative matching grants together with Virginia whenever you reuse $849,708,475.57.
