The last Fund Requests for this Fiscal Year will be processed on June 18, 2024.  All requests must be submitted and approved by Program Managers no later than Monday, June 17, 2024.

Please take note of the following important dates regarding the resumption of payments:

  • State Grants: Payments can resume on July 5, 2024.
  • Federal Funds and Grants:  Availability of federal funds and ability to submit payment of federal grants will be effective starting July 15, 2024.

Reminder:

Grants ending on June 30, 2024, must be drawn down in advance of the end of the Fiscal Year. Funds may be expended through June 30, however, draw downs must occur in advance of the State Comptroller’s scheduled closing date.

Please be sure to complete all fund requests accordingly. 

All expenditure data is cumulative from the start date of the grant. This includes all X001 expenditure data.
