    I lost my job as a graphic designer and my household is applying for SNAP for the first time. The caseworker asked for bank statements too. What did you submit and how long did approval take?

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

    Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it last year, and it got easier once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
