As part of the application process, individual applicants and key participants of a business must
also submit a completed Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI) Identity History Summary. USDA will not accept criminal history reports completed more than 60 days before the submission of an application. USDA will approve or deny license applications within 60 calendar days, and applicants will be notified of the result either by letter or email.
