request timely assistance with technical

Michelle G. Bulls, GPS, at (301) 443–

application deadline to advise her of the 

difficulties you have experienced. 

• If it is determined that a formal 

waiver is necessary, each organization 

must submit a request, in writing (emails are acceptable), to 

Michelle.Bulls@ihs.gov providing a 

justification for the need to deviate from 

the standard electronic submission 

process. Upon receipt of approval, a 

hard-copy application package must be 

downloaded from Grants.gov, and sent 

directly to the Division of Grants 

Operations (DGO), 801 Thompson 

Avenue, TMP 360, Rockville, MD 20852

site, there is information available that 

outlines the requirements to each UIHO 

regarding electronic submission of

strongly encourage each organization to 

not wait until the deadline date to begin 

the application process as the 

registration process for CCR and 

Grants.gov could take up to fifteen 

working days. 

• To use Grants.gov, each UIHO must 

obtain a Data Universal Numbering 

System (DUNS) and register in the CCR. 

Each organization should allow a 

minimum often working days to 

complete CCR registration. See below on 

how to apply. 

• Each organization must submit all 

documents electronically, including all

your application from Grants.gov. The 

DGO will notify each organization that 

the application has been received. 

• You may access the electronic 

application for this program on
