How Long to transfer funds

[OakLevel]

Anyone know how long it takes (when you actually request funds to be transfered) for money to show up in the bank? It's been over a week and no funds yet????

No messages saying anything is wrong either... All looks well (1199A received and verified, etc).

This was our first year applying, and we got ours in the 6th round

Congrats on the award.

The funds transfer will take "up to 30 days", but on average about 10 business days from what I've experienced and heard from others.

We were awarded in June, Requested money on July 2nd and it only took a few days. But that was early on, I bet they are backed up now and it will probably take 10 + days.

A little question about requests

I assume I'm reading the below correctly,ie requests can't be made until the peformance period begins?

Article III - Period of Performance

The period of performance (grant period) shall be from 15-AUG-03 to 14-AUG-04.

The grant funds are available to the grantee for obligation only during the period of performance of the grant award.

Not sure where the performance period comes from....

I found out it's 3 to 5 business days (went back and read email from fema) so I sould see it by the 11th at the latest.

Our performance period is July 1, 2003 to June 30, 2004. We were awarded in June. It must differ for everyone depending upon when they were awarded.

Yes, you cannot request money until your performance period begins and they have received your 1199a form via snail mail and have processed it.

Thanks. I thought I read that correctly....

I'd like to thank everyone in this forum. It sure helped us
when we wrote ours this year. We wouldn't have gotten it without
ya.
