Who Can Apply

- Written review request must be submitted within 30 days of the decision. - Request must include the unique grant application ID and supporting material. - Only eligibility decisions under program guidelines can be reviewed. - Expression of interest, public interest and comparative assessment decisions are excluded from review.
A review is available where an applicant believes a decision regarding their eligibility to receive grant funding is incorrect. The request must be made in writing within 30 days of the decision being issued and sent to the appropriate grant mailbox with the unique grant application ID. The request should state the grounds for overturning the decision and include all relevant supporting material, including information on meeting specific eligibility criteria, any critical information overlooked in the original application, and any additional information requested by CDSB. Only decisions related to the eligibility of grant funding applications according to the program guidelines can be reviewed. Decisions relating to expressions of interest, public interest grounds and comparative assessment will not be reconsidered. An original decision will only be overturned if all program eligibility criteria are met.
