Applying for food benefits after losing my job

I lost my job as a bookkeeper and my household is applying for SNAP for the first time. I would rather hear the honest version than the polite one. There are 15 people in my household. Did they ask for anything unexpected?

Take photos of everything you send and write down the date. I had to resend one page and the record helped.

Ask about expedited service. I was told it depends on how little cash and income you have right now.
