SNAP after a layoff: what documents did you send? - what worked for you?

    I lost my job as a medical assistant and my household is applying for SNAP for the first time. I do not usually post, so bear with me. There are 3 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 18 weeks, and my county offered an interview by phone.

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