Step 1.

Go to the Determine Eligibility & Compare Grants webpage for initial comparative information.

Step 2.

Review the Submission Rules

Step 3.

Choose the ONE grant mechanism that best fits your research project. Each grant has specific descriptions and instructions that you need to follow.

Step 4.

Resubmissions
Definition: same research topic with an amended application or research plan rather than a new research topic and new research plan.
Requirements: Please use up to one extra page to introduce your revised proposal, addressing the issues raised in the review, and any additional changes to your proposal. A new letter from the Chair is not required if the resubmission is within 2 cycles (one skipped cycle max). You will include the old letter and state your resubmission is within 2 cycles and new letter is not required. Make sure the new changes are highlighted in bold or italic font so the reviewers can easily see where and how the proposal has changed. Do not use track changes.

Step 5.

Convert your proposal into a PDF including all supporting documents listed on the instructions

Step 6.

Complete the electronic application form and upload your proposal PDF 

Step 7.

Complete the 5 sections of the electronic application form. You can make any changes, including replacing the PDF proposal, until the deadline, but be sure TO SAVE the final changes before the deadline.  When the deadline hits, only the data uploaded and saved will be reviewed. There is no submit button. It is your responsibility to ensure the submission in all its parts - including the PDF - is correct.
