Applying for food benefits after losing my job - 5 months and counting

My SNAP recertification is coming up and my income changed a lot since my layoff. It has been weighing on me all week. I have a final pay stub, a termination letter and my unemployment approval. What did you submit and how long did approval take?

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

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