SNAP recertification with changing income - what worked for you?

I lost my job as a machine operator and my household is applying for SNAP for the first time. The caseworker asked for bank statements too. Is there an expedited option for people with very little income?

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

I sent my last two pay stubs, the separation letter and a bank statement. I heard back in about 4 weeks, and my county offered an interview by phone.
