About this file

This is an Affidavit of Eligibility Form for the Buy Local or Veteran Small Business Program established by the State of Florida, applicable to solicitations within Orange, Osceola, Lake, Polk, and Seminole Counties. The form serves as a certification document that businesses must submit with their bid responses for solicitations that include Buy Local or Veteran preference designations if the business is not already certified. Bidders must select their applicable business type and provide their business name and signature to certify compliance with the program requirements.

The form establishes two distinct eligibility pathways. The Buy Local designation requires that a business maintain its headquarters, manufacturing facility, or principal office within the specified county jurisdictions for at least six months prior to solicitation issuance, or that the owner or principal maintain their primary residence in these counties. The Veteran Small Business designation requires the business to be owned and controlled by veterans as defined under Section 502 of the Veterans Benefits, Health Care, and Information Technology Act of 2006, be domiciled in Florida, and be listed in the federal Database of Veteran-owned Businesses. Applicants must submit required documentation including proof of small business status for veteran-owned businesses, a valid local business license tax receipt from the applicable county, a physical business address, and any additional verification materials requested by the contracting district.
