Receipt of per capita payments is not mandatory; it is available to you if you want to receive it. You will be able to apply for per capita distribution with the Per Capita Application Packet. A Per Capita Office has been established so you can be informed on all updates regarding per capita.

Please read the Per Capita Fact Sheet of this packet and the Per Capita Application Instructions carefully, as they contain important information that will help you apply successfully.

Applications are also available at the Per Capita Office or by mail by simply contacting the Per Capita Office to have one mailed to you.
