In order to be considered for the December 2018 per capita distribution, completed enrollment applications for new applicants for the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians must be submitted to the EBCI Enrollment Office by Monday, Sept. 17 at 4:30pm. Enrollment applications received after this date and time will not be considered for the December 2018 distribution.
An application will only be considered complete with a county or state certified birth certificate, certified DNA results, and certification of all other Indian blood. To schedule an appointment at the local collection site, call Michelle Stiles 359-6463. Out-of-town applicants may contact Amber Harrison (918) 685-0478 to schedule an appointment in your area.
DNA testing must be collected by Thursday, Aug. 30 in order for the results to be in by Sept. 17. Any DNA collected after this date is not guaranteed to be returned by the deadline. Because of the extended amount of time in receiving a social security number for a newborn, an application will be considered complete without a social security card. However, an enrollment card will only be issued upon receipt of the social security card of a new enrollee.
Applications may be obtained from the EBCI Enrollment Office located at 808 Acquoni Rd. or at www.ebci.com.
