I done the application, signed it, and emailed it back to the local FSA office. Very easy to do

It is quite simple. Go to the following website.
https://www.farmers.gov/cfap#apply
Scroll down to "How to apply" and then "CFAP Application" and download AD-3114 and the CFAP payment calculator.
Complete the two page form AD-3114 with any sales occurring between January 15 and April 15 and your highest inventory between April 16 and May14.
Sign it. You can then scan it and send it in to your local FSA office, but call first so they know it is coming.
If your farm is already on record with FSA and your records are current, the AD-3114 will be all you need.
If you have not used FSA services in the past, they will tell you what other forms you will need, such as:
CCC-901 for your name, address, tax ID#,
CCC-941 to report your income,
SF-3881 for direct deposit banking information.

I'm still holding on to last years calf crop born from 2/19 - 4/15. Have not sold a calf since 6/19 I didn't understand if I would get anything for holding on. Doesn't make sense to sell them in a down market. But looking like might have been best to shuck them a few months back.
My FSA person emailed me and told me the info they needed and to email it back. They are going to fill out the form for me and send it to me to sign.

You can get $33 per head for every feeder, cow, calf, bull that you owned between April 15 and May 14Lucky said:

Last count was 1,034.

I'm guessing there will be a second round of payments after the second quarter. Otherwise the 4/15 date makes absolutely no sense. There were a lot of people that had fat cattle ready to sell and no market for them from mid April through the first part of may. I think you will be money ahead holding them. But what do I know.

This is what I'm hoping for. I don't care so much about a payment on the mother cows but some help on these yearlings would be nice. $33 dollars a head doesn't go very far when the market is down $150-200 a head. I talked to a man that has 700 hd in the feedlot weighing 1,500# and there's nowhere for them to go. That's a rough deal.

It is Congress, nothing makes much sense.

The lady in the FSA office called my son to tell him about it, he went by and did the paperwork and they filed for it. He does all the farm income/expenses/taxes and just pays me for what ever cattle that are mine that get sold. Much easier for him to do it all and get the benefits of any tax writeoffs etc. Most are his cattle anyway, and most of the equipment is his too. I'm just the go-fer and the hay tedder/raker and the cattle getter-in person....

Ahh...missed that. Does change the way I interpreted it.
Thanks, I'll take the time to figure out the info the want now.
1982vett said:
My application did not contain the second part. I think there is the Cares Act part I and part II.
tom4018 said:
I have not but I know of one member here who has.
tom4018 said:
I got a letter saying payment had been deposited in my account. I have not been to the bank to check the deposit record yet though.
