Please follow the Lincolnshire County Council process to apply for Free School Meals by accessing the Lincolnshire County Council Parent Portal

LCC will process eligibility checks for Free School Meals.

Is my child eligible?

Your child may be eligible if you are in receipt of one or more of the following qualifying benefits:

• Universal Credit (provided you have an annual net earned income of no more than £7,400, as assessed by earnings from up to three of your most recent assessment periods)
• Income Support
• Income-based Jobseeker's Allowance
• Income-related Employment and Support Allowance
• Support under Part VI of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999
• The guaranteed element of state Pension Credit
• Child Tax Credit (provided you're not also entitled to Working Tax Credit and have an annual gross income of no more £16,190)
• Working Tax Credit run-on - paid for four weeks after you stop qualifying for Working Tax Credit

Children who get paid these benefits directly, instead of through a parent or guardian, can also get free school meals.

Parents, guardians and carers can apply for free school meals online at the Lincolnshire County Council Parent Portal
