SNAP after a layoff: what documents did you send? - 2 weeks in

I lost my job as a teaching assistant and my household is applying for SNAP for the first time. I am in Buffalo, in case local advice matters. The caseworker asked for bank statements too. Is there an expedited option for people with very little income?

I sent my last two pay stubs, the separation letter and a bank statement. I heard back in about 2 weeks, and my county offered an interview by phone.

Take photos of everything you send and write down the date. I had to resend one page and the record helped.
