Florida PEP Reimbursement Tracker
One organized system for the full PEP reimbursement process — from your first purchase to the final payment confirmation.
Florida PEP is a reimbursement program — you pay for educational expenses out of pocket, submit receipts, and wait for Step Up to review and pay out. The process works, but it requires staying organized across many expenses, receipts, and submission statuses at once.
Most families have several reimbursement requests in flight at any time, each at a different stage — submitted, under review, on hold, or paid.
Each submission requires both a receipt and proof of payment. Missing either — or missing card last-4 digits — results in a denial.
Reimbursements take time. An on-hold notice resets the clock to zero. Without tracking, it's easy to miss hold notices entirely.
Expenses not submitted before the annual deadline are permanently forfeited. No extensions for missed deadlines outside of official changes.
Florida PEP Tracker keeps your expenses, receipts, documentation, and reimbursement statuses organized so nothing slips through the cracks.
Log every PEP purchase as you make it — vendor, amount, category, and purchase date — so you have a complete record when it's time to submit.
Attach receipts and proof-of-payment documents to each expense. Everything Step Up might ask for is organized by submission, not buried in email.
See exactly where each submission stands — purchased, submitted, under review, on hold, approved, or paid — without logging into EMA every day.
Track your remaining scholarship balance and see how much has already been reimbursed, so you always know where you stand heading into each cycle.
Florida PEP Tracker maps each expense through the actual Step Up reimbursement stages, so you can see at a glance what's waiting, what's moving, and what needs attention.
