Payment Management System: My organization has expenses that were incurred within the grant project period; however, we were unable to draw the funds within 90 days of the grant ending. Are we still able to request these funds?

Payment requests that are made more than 90 days after the project period expiration (i.e., the liquidation period) are sent to the awarding agency for approval before being released to recipient. Once we receive the request, and a decision (approval or denial) will be provided within three business days.

You should be prepared to answer the following questions when submitting a request to draw funds beyond the liquidation period:

• When the costs were incurred?
• What the costs were for?
• The reason the funds were not drawn timely.
