SNAP after a layoff: what documents did you send? - 14 weeks in

I lost my job as a home health aide and my household is applying for SNAP for the first time. I worked as a home health aide before this. I have a final pay stub, a termination letter and my unemployment approval. What did you submit and how long did approval take?

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

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