Missouri SUN Bucks Eligibility Navigator

The purpose of this tool is to help you determine if your child is eligible for Missouri SuN Bucks. If your child is or may be eligible for Missouri SuN Bucks, this tool will also provide you with information about how your child will receive benefits. Your child will receive benefits either automatically or after you submit an application, and they are confirmed eligible.

What information will I need to use this tool?

You will need to know at least your child's age and, if your child attends a school, whether your child's school participates in the federal School Breakfast Program or National School Lunch Program. You may also be asked about your child's participation in certain benefit programs, if your child has been approved for free or reduced-price school meals, and your household's size and annual income.

If you have more than one child and would like to check eligibility for each child individually, use the "Reset Form" button below to reset the form and enter new responses.

 

Is your child between the ages of 7 and 17?
Does your child participate in the SNAP or TA (Temporary Assistance) programs?
Did you apply for Free/Reduced Lunch for your child and your child’s school/district notified you about your child’s approval for free or reduced-price meals?
Does your child have active MO HealthNet (Medicaid) and household income less than 185% of the Federal Poverty Level for your household size?
