Applying for food benefits after losing my job - what worked for you?

My SNAP recertification is coming up and my income changed a lot since my layoff. It has been weighing on me all week. There are 18 people in my household. What did you submit and how long did approval take?

I sent my last two pay stubs, the separation letter and a bank statement. I heard back in about 11 weeks, and my county offered an interview by phone.
