Before you apply
- Have your date of birth and a Georgia address ready.
- Bring anything showing you were in foster care at 18 or older — a court letter, a case number, or a caseworker’s contact. Missing paperwork should not stop you from applying.
- Watch your mail and phone for follow-up questions.
