ALEXANDRIA, Va. (May 26, 2016) – With a new registration system now required for grant applicants, low-income credit unions seeking Community Development Revolving Loan Fund assistance grants should give themselves adequate time to file, the National Credit Union Administration said today.
The application deadline is June 30.
Applicants are now required by federal law to register with the government’s System for Award Management (opens new window). Registration is necessary for NCUA to meet federal grant disclosure requirements, and instructions for creating an account and registering your credit union are available on the “Help Documents” section of the Office of Small Credit Union Initiatives’ Grants and Loans information page. Instructions may also be found on the System for Award Management’s website. There is no registration fee.
Credit unions with questions about registering should contact the Federal Service Desk (opens new window) online or by telephone at 866-606-8220. For questions about the Community Development assistance grants, contact NCUA’s Office of Small Credit Union Initiatives at oscuiapps@ncua.gov.
