When did the grant term begin? Did it begin when we received notification, when we began to draw down funds, or when the revised budget was approved?
The start date of the grant is indicated by the date included in the award notification document you received in September. The start date can be found in box number 6 of the award notification document. However, some award letters include a special condition prohibiting you from spending any money pending an approval of your budget. You will then receive notification from the Bureau of Justice Assistance indicating that your budget has been approved.
