Household Eligibility Forms (Meal & Universal Benefit Applications)

In order to remain compliant with both federal and state regulations for the National School Lunch and Breakfast programs and the California Universal Meal Program, we ask that all families verify their household eligibility. Completing the form can provide your student(s) and family with valuable benefits, such as:

• SUN Bucks (Summer Grocery Benefits)
  Receive a one-time grocery benefit of $120 for each eligible child to help purchase food during the summer months.
• Reduced or Free SAT & AP Exam Fees
  Eligible high school students may qualify for reduced or waived SAT and Advanced Placement (AP) exam fees, helping save on college preparation costs.
• Free Annual School Photos
  Eligible students may receive a free basic annual school photo package.
• Discounted Internet, Phone & Utility Services
  Eligible families may qualify for discounted home internet, phone, and utility services through participating assistance programs. (Please note that eligibility requirements may vary by program.)

Find out if you qualify to take advantage of these valuable benefits:

1. Verify your household size and income. If your income is at or below the scale, please continue to Step 2. If your income is higher, you DO NOT need to fill out an application.
