Completion Reports (CRs):

§  CRs are due to Grants Management in approvable form by the end of the 90-day liquidation period following the project end date.

§  OVERDUE: CRs for awards that ended 06/30/26 were due by 09/28/26. Any outstanding CRs for those awards are now overdue. Please reach out to your assigned Grant Coordinator (GC) if you need assistance with a late CR.

§  CRs for awards that ended 09/30/26 are due by 12/29/26.

§  CRs submitted after the 90-day liquidation period following the project end date are at risk of not receiving final payment for expenditures obligated during the project period.

§  Some funding applications have a limit to how much (if any) carryover is allowed. Please check with your program area to see if carryover is allowed before submitting the CR.

§  Outstanding CRs may result in holds on open projects and delays in processing your Reimbursement Requests. If you have any outstanding CRs, please submit them as soon as possible.
   
Please allow appropriate processing time if your LEA is required to submit your CR to your county’s office or an ADE Program Area office before it can be reviewed by Grants Management.

FY26 Funding Application Revisions:

§  Revisions must be Director Approved prior to the end of the project or they will need to be cancelled.

§  To cancel a revision, organizations must add a History Log comment and include Grant Management to generate a help desk ticket requesting the revision to the funding application be cancelled.

§  A Completion Report cannot be started if the funding application is not in Director Approved status or if the LEA has a pending reimbursement request.
