How quickly should I approve applications? at the beginning of the year? on new applications?
Applications for new students and others who cannot be provided meal benefits based on the prior year’s eligibility should be processed as quickly as possible. For children with an application on file from the prior year, such as returning students and new students who had siblings in the school the prior year, an eligibility determination should be made within 10 working days of the return of the new application. • More from Food and Nutrition Management, FL-DOE, March.
