Application Review Process

We strongly encourage you to submit your application as early as possible to allow sufficient time for processing. The standard review period ranges from 4 to 6 weeks, depending on the complexity of the application and the volume of submissions at the time. To avoid delays and ensure all requirements are met, applications should be submitted as early as possible. This timeframe provides adequate time for initial review, potential revisions, and final approval.

Below is a detailed, step-by-step breakdown of the review process to help you understand what to expect.

Step 1: Pay the application fee

Please note: For complex or time-intensive applications, an additional fee may apply.

Step 2: Choose a Form

Step 3: Complete the Application Form and Collect Supporting Documents
Fill out the application form with the required details. For guidance, you can refer to the helpful templates available on our Resources page, which include examples for the budget, evaluation form, conflict of interest form, and more.

Step 5: Application Review
