Applying for food benefits after losing my job after 13 years as an accountant

I lost my job as an accountant and my household is applying for SNAP for the first time. I am in Fresno, in case local advice matters. There are 13 people in my household. What did you submit and how long did approval take?

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 7 months ago, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
