Applying for food benefits after losing my job, pharmacy technician here

I lost my job as a pharmacy technician and my household is applying for SNAP for the first time. Any experience at all would help. There are 11 people in my household. What did you submit and how long did approval take?

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

I sent my last two pay stubs, the separation letter and a bank statement. I heard back in about 9 weeks, and my county offered an interview by phone.
