APPLICATION DEADLINE FOR QUALITY EDUCATOR PAYMENT

Please be advised that applications must be in submitted status to be eligible for the Quality Educator Payment (QEP) by or before 12/1. We rely on the official submission date as the determining factor for processing and review. Kindly ensure all applications are officially submitted.

We are aware that the Department of Justice (DOJ) processing time for background checks is estimated between 3-4 weeks. If an application is waiting on a background check, it can still be submitted. Once we receive the background check, the application will move forward. The submission date will determine if the educator will qualify for QEP, so it is important you check the status of any remaining applications.
