With the NDRC Phase 1 deadline quickly approaching, it is important to check that applicants are properly registered to apply in grants.gov. In certain circumstances, the registration process can take anywhere from 3-4 weeks, so it is important for applicants to check their status now.

All applicants must have a Dun and Bradstreet Universal Numbering System (DUNS) identifier and maintain active registration in the System for Award Management (SAM). Detailed instructions for registration are located on the www.grants.gov web page under “Applicants” > “Register as an Organization”.
