Current Application

All applicants are required to submit a completed Mandatory FY 2023 MSEIP Eligibility Certification Form. The Mandatory FY 2023 MSEIP Eligibility Certification Form is a critical document used to determine applicant eligibility and is not available through Grants.gov; it is only available in the MSEIP application package. This form should be copied from the application package, completed, saved, and attached as a separate file to the “Other Attachments Form” with your application in Grants.gov. (Do not use forms from previous competitions.)

All applicants are required to submit an application online through Grants.gov. Grants.gov is a single access point for over 1,000 grant programs offered by federal and other grant-making agencies.

Through Grants.gov you will be able to download a copy of the MSEIP application package, complete it offline, and then upload and submit your application. You may search for the downloadable application package for this program by the Assistance Listing Number (ALN) 84.120, formerly referred to as the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA).

If you experience problems submitting your application through Grants.gov, refer to the Support page and/or contact the Grants.gov Support Desk, toll free, at 1-800-518-4726 or email at: support@grants.gov or access the Grants.gov Self-Service Knowledge Base web portal at: https://grants-portal.psc.gov/Welcome.aspx?pt=Grants.

Grants.gov Customer Service is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, excluding federal holidays.

For program-specific questions, contact the program officer.

If you use a telecommunications device for the deaf (TDD) or a text telephone (TTY), call the Federal Relay Service (FRS), toll free, at 1-800-877-8339 .
