WIC Program

A person must have a total household income equal to or less than the amounts shown in the WIC Income Guidelines (see below) OR they are already income-eligible if they are currently receiving Medicaid, Temporary Cash Assistance (TCA), or Food Assistance. A person does not have to be on a public assistance program to qualify for WIC.

For a pregnant woman, each unborn baby counts as one extra person in the household size.

Fees will not be charged for WIC certification or WIC benefits.

*Note: The gross (before taxes) wages on your check stubs based on how often you are paid (income interval) and household size will need to be less than or equal to the amounts in the chart to be income eligible for WIC.

Revised 6/19/2025

Each year, these dollar amounts may increase.

• When required, bring each woman, infant, and child applying for WIC.
• Proof of ALL income for everyone in the household (before taxes and deductions are taken out), such as: employment wages, child support, alimony, unemployment payments, foster care payments, and military earnings.
  • Proof of income must include all sources of funds received during the last 28-31 days. If paid weekly, provide four pay stubs. If paid every two weeks or biweekly, provide two pay stubs. If the amount does not change for each pay period, one pay stub is acceptable.
  • If you receive Medicaid, Temporary Cash Assistance (TCA), or food assistance (SNAP), you may be income-eligible for WIC and proof of income won’t be needed.
• ONE proof of where you live (no P.O. boxes), must be current with name and address, such as a utility bill, bank/insurance statement, or driver’s license. You must be currently living in Florida, but you don’t have to be a U.S. citizen.
• ONE proof of identification (ID) for you and ONE proof of ID for any infant or child applying for WIC, such as a birth certificate, driver’s license, crib card, military ID, photo ID, Social Security card, or hospital record.
• Completed WIC Medical Referral Form for each woman, infant, or child who is applying, if available.
• Social Security Number for each person applying for WIC, if available.
• Immunization record for each child, if available.
