Applying for food benefits after losing my job - 22 weeks in

I got a notice asking for proof of income and I am unsure what to send. There are 11 people counting on me, so I am trying to be careful. I have a final pay stub, a termination letter and my unemployment approval.

Keep everything in writing and save the confirmation numbers. It made the follow-up calls so much easier.

Some local food pantries can help while the case is pending. Try calling 211 for one near you.
