  • What if I move?

If you're moving within Florida, you will need to bring:

  • Identification for everyone that gets WIC and is transferring
  • Your WIC Identification/Appointment card, if you have it
  • Shot records for your children, if you have them
  • You must be currently certified and due for benefits. (Florida WIC may be used at authorized stores anywhere in the state)

If you are moving to Florida from another state, we will need:

  • Identification for everyone that gets WIC and is transferring
  • Proof of where you live now
  • Shot records (if you have them) for children
