Once you have the Funding Opportunity and/or CFDA number of the grant for which you want to apply, you need it to download a grant application and apply for a grant. Be sure to follow the instructions exactly and review the application several times for completeness.

You must register to create a Grants.gov account and receive approval from your organization to submit applications. This also provides you with the ability to track your application status.

When you are ready to submit the completed application, you will then need to log into Grants.gov using the username and password you entered when you registered with.

Once you have submitted an application, you can check the status of your application submission. You can identify your application by CFDA Number, Funding Opportunity Number, Competition ID, and/or Grants.gov Tracking Number.
