Phase 2
From Statement of Eligibility to Temporary Certificate
After you apply, the Florida Department of Education may issue an Official Statement of Eligibility. This document explains whether you qualify for a Temporary Certificate and what requirements you must complete. Many applicants receive this document but are unsure what to do next.
