FSIS is currently experiencing a delay of about 20-21 business days in evaluations for labels that require review prior to use. By providing industry with label application submission tips and suggestions via the Constituent Update, FSIS is hopeful that it will achieve a faster, more efficient label evaluation process.
TIP: The fastest way to obtain a label approval is to ensure the application includes a label with all of the required features and documentation necessary to support any statements or claims on the label.
