Document Requirements
Applications are often rejected due to unclear or missing documents. Ensure your uploads:
- Show your full name clearly.
- Show the name of the issuing agency (e.g., Dept of Social Services).
- Are dated within the last 12 months (or have a future expiration date).
- Are not blurry or cut off.
Application Processing Time
Once submitted, approval can take anywhere from 20 minutes to 5 business days depending on the provider and the quality of your documents.
Pro Tip:
If applying for a child (e.g., through Free School Lunch), make sure the parent's info matches the guardian info on the school document.
