If your organization is unable to submit an application by the published NOFO deadline due to justified circumstances you may request an extension. As referenced in the SF-424 Application Guide (PDF - 663 KB) on pages 14-15 and 48, HRSA's Division of Grants Policy and Planning (DGPP) in the Office of Federal Assistance Management is the only office authorized to grant extensions. You must contact the DGPP via email at ApplicationWaivers@hrsa.gov and provide a brief explanation and your earliest estimated date of submission. Request for extensions will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
Your email must include:
- HRSA funding opportunity number;
- name, address, and telephone number of the organization;
- organization's DUNS number (soon to be Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) number); and
- name and telephone number of the Project Director.
Please contact DGPP as soon as possible if you anticipate issues completing your application on time and need to request an extension. Applicants are also reminded to select "Subscribe" and provide your email address in the Grants.gov workspace for each NOFO you are reviewing or preparing in order to receive notifications including modifications (e.g., a new application due date), clarifications, and/or re-publication of the NOFO on Grants.gov before its closing date.
