In accordance with Human Resources and Skills Development Canada (HRSDC) service standards, under normal conditions, we acknowledge receipt of your application within 21 calendar days of receiving your Application package.
HRSD Service Standards for Grants and Contributions
The Minister of HRSD makes the final decision on projects recommended for funding. HRSDC will make every effort to process your Application in a timely manner. The amount of time it takes to process Applications is determined by the volume of Applications received. Once a final decision has been made on all Applications, HRSDC will notify applicants in writing of the outcome of the review (approval or rejection).
Payment of the grant is made following approval of the grant and once all conditions (if any) have been met by the Recipient, a start date has been confirmed by HRSDC and the agreement has been signed by a representative of HRSDC.
Recipients must not start their projects until they receive an approval letter from HRSDC. Projects must start in the current fiscal year, that is, before March 31, 2012. All projects must end no later than March 31, 2013 (priority may be given to projects that occur within a 52 week period).
