My SNAP recertification is coming up and my income changed a lot since my layoff. I would rather hear the honest version than the polite one. The caseworker asked for bank statements too. Did they ask for anything unexpected?

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 13 months ago, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.

I sent my last two pay stubs, the separation letter and a bank statement. I heard back in about 14 weeks, and my county offered an interview by phone.
