INSTRUCTIONS FOR DSS FORM 3359
All organizations must complete a DSS Form 3359 and DSS Form 3358.
The CACFP Agreement Number is assigned by the South Carolina Department of Social Services (SCDSS). If your organization has

Give the Federal Identification Number assigned to your organization by the IRS. This number should be taken from your tax
documents and should agree with the information listed on the W-9 form, which is part of this application package. If your W-9

then list the name and dates of participation for each of those programs. If you have not participated in any of the food nutrition
programs in the past three years, check No.
