Registration
Registration for all Federal Agencies and Awardees (Prime Recipients and Sub Recipients) begins on Monday, August 17th. Each individual who will be submitting or reviewing reports on behalf of an Agency or a Recipient must register as a user.
Before you can submit reports through FederalReporting.gov, you must complete a one-time registration.
You must meet certain pre-requisites to register. Meeting pre-requisites and registering with FederalReporting.gov may take 2 business days or more, so please start early!
Users will register as either a Federal Agency or a Recipient of an award.
Registering as a Federal Agency
Federal Agencies are Federal entities which provide funds under the Recovery Act. Federal Agencies review and comment upon Recipient reports. Agencies may include both Funding Agencies and Awarding Agencies. Funding Agencies provide Recovery Act funds. An Awarding Agency awards/administers such funds through an award (such as a contract, grant, or loan). For example, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), as a Funding Agency, may engage the General Services Administration (GSA) to issue and manage a contract on its behalf. GSA is the Awarding Agency.
Typically, Funding Agency and Awarding Agency are the same. Note that Awarding Agencies will be reviewing reports in FederalReporting.gov. If you are affiliated with a Funding Agency only, you will not need to register with FederalReporting.gov.
Registering as a Recipient
Recipients are non-Federal entities that receive Recovery Act funding, and should register as a Recipient User. Recipients may submit reports as a Prime Recipient or a Sub Recipient.
Your email address will serve as your User ID to FederalReporting.gov. Once registered, you will receive your temporary password via email. Users may not share passwords with other individuals.
Registration must be completed in order to submit reporting data to FederalReporting.gov. Submission of reporting data begins on October 1, 2009.
