What if I forgot to file?

If you forgot to file the PI-1206 Homeschool Report for any year, your child is/was subject to the truancy process for the time period in which you were not in compliance with compulsory attendance laws.

There is no way to file retroactively. You are 100% responsible for compliance with the law. If you did not file for any year, you do not have proof that you were in compliance with Wisconsin homeschooling law for that year. There is nothing you or WHPA can do to fix this.

WHPA provides information about homeschooling in Wisconsin. WHPA does not provide specific legal advice to any specific individuals in the context of any specific matters. It is the responsibility of each homeschool administrator/parent or guardian to read original source material and make decisions on compliance for themselves. When you file the PI-1206 Homeschool Report with the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction, you take full responsibility for understanding and complying with the laws outlined on that form. WHPA does not endorse or provide curriculum suggestions or specific materials for any particular educational approach.
