Applicants have the opportunity to track the status of their application without logging in to Grants.gov. To do so, you will need the Grants.gov tracking number, which is displayed on the confirmation page in Grants.gov immediately after you complete the submission. Please note, this only confirms that an application was successfully submitted through Grants.gov to the federal award-making agency. Thereafter in the process, the award-making agency retrieves, reviews, and processes the applications independent of Grants.gov. The federal award-making agencies do not report the application status to Grants.gov. After a submission is Validated, refer to the federal agency POC or website for updates.
When using the Track My Application function, please note the following:
The system will only return a status for valid tracking numbers.
Until the status is available for valid tracking numbers, the following message will be returned by the system: Tracking number(s) entered currently being processed, please check back later.
For invalid tracking numbers entered, the system will return the following message: Tracking number(s) you entered are not valid.
