cost meals if your household income is within the reduced price
limits on the Federal Income Chart, shown on this application. |

participating in WIC may be eligible for free or reduced
price meals. Please fill out an application. |
| Will the information I give be checked? |
| Yes, we may ask you to send
written proof. |
| If I don't qualify now, may I apply again later? |
| Yes. You may apply at any
time during the school year if your household size goes up, income
goes down, or if you start getting Food Stamps, W-2 Cash Benefits or
other Benefits. If you lose your job, your children may be able to get free or reduced price meals during the time you are unemployed. |
| What if I disagree with the school's decision about my application? |
| You should talk to school
officials. You also may ask for a hearing by calling or writing to:
Dave Wuebben, Director of Business Services, PO Box 70, Hortonville, WI 54944.
(920)-779-7907. |
| May I apply if someone in my household is not a U.S.
citizen? |
| Yes. You or your
child(ren) do not have to be a U.S. citizen to qualify for free or
reduced price meals. |
| Who should I include as members of my household? |
| You must include all people
living in your household, related or not (such as grandparents,
other relatives, or friends). You must include yourself and all
children who live with you. |
| What if my income is not always the same? |
| List the amounts that you
normally get. For example, if you normally get $1000 each
month, but you missed some work last month and only got $900, put
down that you get $1000 per month. If you normally get
overtime, include it, but not if you get it only some of the time. |
| We are in the military. Do we include our housing
allowance as income? |
| If your housing is part of
the Military Housing Privatization Initiative, do not include your
housing allowance as income. All other allowances must be
included in your gross income. |
