Applying for food benefits after losing my job - first time posting

I lost my job as a payroll clerk and my household is applying for SNAP for the first time. There are 6 people in my household. 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.

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