The ccc 902i form, issued by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC), is used by the Farm Service Agency (FSA) to determine payment eligibility and payment limitations for individual farmers. It applies to individuals only. Entities, partnerships, and joint operations use the separate CCC-902E form instead.
Required under the Agricultural Act of 2014, the ccc 902i form collects information across several key parts:
Part A - General Information: The applicant provides their full name, address, and social security number. The FSA uses this to track and allocate program benefits accurately.
Part B - Status as an Individual: This section confirms that the applicant is filing as a natural person. It distinguishes individual filers from legal entities and triggers the correct payment limitation rules under FSA requirements.
Part C - Land, Capital, and Equipment: Applicants list each farm they are associated with by farm number, county, state, and total acreage. The form asks whether the land is owned or leased and requires the name of any entity or individual from whom it is leased. Custom service arrangements are also documented here.
Parts D through G - Contribution Percentages: These sections capture what percentage of each resource the applicant contributes: land, capital, equipment, active personal labor, and active personal management. The FSA reviews these figures to verify "actively engaged in farming" status required for payment eligibility.
Part H - Certification and Signatures: The applicant signs the ccc 902i form to certify that all information is accurate and complete. Providing false information may result in civil or criminal penalties under federal law.
The form also includes a Privacy Act statement and an equal opportunity policy. If you have interests in more than one farming operation, a separate form may be required for each. Browse related USDA Department of Agriculture forms on FormsPal, including the CCC-10 form and CCC-526-C form.
