[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There must have been an issue with getting paperwork from families who got spots in the lottery. The paperwork requirements are there either way, so I don't think it impacts the number of eligible children in the VPI lottery. [/quote] This is my guess, because the in-person submission requirement includes completing the application with APS staff. This change sounds like a way to provide support during the process to families likely to need it.[/quote] …except that many many low-income people simply will not be able to take time off from work to do this. Net, net, requiring in-person 9-5 filing will cause low-income applications to drop. Inconvenient for the middle class, but nearly impossible for working class. Sigh.[/quote] If you can’t take a single day off VPI probably won’t be a good fit for you anyway. There are a lot of days off and early releases. [/quote]
