May an organization apply for 501(C)(3) status at the same time as they apply for a grant, or do they have to have the status approved before they submit their application to EPA?
An organization may apply for 501(C)(3) status at the same time that they apply for a grant, but the organization must have its 501(C)(3) status already approved by the IRS to be eligible for an award under this grant program. If an applicant becomes a finalist for a grant but does not have its 501(C)(3) status approved by the time of the award, it will not be eligible for the award.
