Processing Times:

Grants Fiscal strives to process reimbursement requests within 45 days from the DUE DATE of the type of request as stated below (i.e., either the 1st or the 15th of the month, or the next business day when this day falls on a holiday/weekend). This 45 day clock starts the business day after the due date for a given grant category when the requests for funds are pulled and processed. However, current staffing shortages, both in GFMU and in CDE's Accounting unit, may increase our processing times somewhat. Please plan accordingly, and we thank you for your patience.
