Once you have created your application, you may return to continue working on it HERE for three months. We recommend bookmarking this address. We also recommend using Google Chrome or Google Chrome Incognito as the browser for completing the application. If an application is not completed in full or is missing required attachments, it will not be able to be reviewed.

To track the status of an Application:

 

Once you have submitted your application, you should receive an email confirming submission. Due to the email security settings of organizations, in some cases, the emails may not be received and you can track your proposal’s progress using the Open Items and Closed Items tabs on the portal’s Dashboard. Please note that applications will be transitioned from the Open Items tab to the Closed Items tab when Declined.
