Submit your Phase 1 application.
Submission window closes.
Applications are reviewed for completeness and eligibility.

PHASE 2 PROCESS

If your Phase 1 application is approved you will receive an invite notification from the program administrator to submit your Phase 2 application.
Develop Phase 2 of your application utilizing support from your technical assistance advocate.
Submit your Phase 2 application by the application deadline. You may submit your application at any time before the deadline.
Move on to voucher execution and reimbursement.

NOTE: Only eligible applicants for which there is available funding will continue to complete their application in Phase 2 of the application process. Per the “first-come-first-served” process, if the total amount requested on day one does not exceed available funds then applications will be reviewed and funds will be awarded in the order that they were received. If the total amount of funds requested on day one, before 11:59 pm PT, exceeds the amount of funds available, then the applications received on day one will be randomized and reviewed in the new randomized order to ensure equitability.
