Full applications must be received by 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time, November 30, 2020. Applications must be submitted via grants.gov unless the applicant does not have access to the Internet.
If you do not have Internet access, submit your proposal as a hard copy via mail or courier. Mailed submissions must also be received in the office by 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time, November 30, 2020. Hard copies received after this date and time will not be accepted. Applications cannot be submitted via email or fax.
In order to submit an application through Grants.gov, an applicant must register for a Grants.gov user ID and password. Note that this process can take between three to five business days or as long as four weeks if all steps are not completed correctly. To avoid delays, applicants are strongly encouraged to start early and not wait until the approaching application deadline before registering, logging in, reviewing the application instructions, and applying. Information about the Grants.gov registration process for organizations can be found at http://grants.gov/applicants/organization_registration.jsp.
Please note that organizations already registered with Grants.gov do not need to re-register; however, all registered organizations must keep their Grants.gov password and SAM database (which now incorporates CCR) registration up-to-date or their applications will not be accepted by Grants.gov. Note that your CCR username will not work in SAM. You must create a new SAM user account to renew or update your registration. Registration on SAM is a requirement. To obtain additional information and to verify that all required registrations are current, please visit www.sam.gov/SAM/.
