Step Eight: Complete the Application

Final applications must be submitted online by the fiscal agent through the Office of Justice Programs Grants Management System (GMS). The online application system can also be accessed through the Tool Box. Only the organization selected as the fiscal agent should apply; all subrecipient funding will be covered by a single application. The fiscal agent must register for the online system and apply for all funds. But before doing so, the task force and the fiscal agent along with all selected subrecipients, if selected at the time, should develop the application.

All applications must include a program narrative, budget detail worksheet and narrative, and the U.S. Attorney certification letter. The program guidance or solicitation identifies the required contents for the program and budget narratives.

Various certifications and other information are also required. To learn about them, the fiscal agent should register for the online system and then review the requirements.
