eGrant: Submitting an Application

After all sections of the application are complete, verify that all required information has been provided and submit the electronic portion of the application. Every application is unique and not all attachment fields are required.

Either:

• click on the “Finish” button in the top right hand corner of any form section
• click on the “Save and Next” button at the bottom of the Additional Information section

Illinois eGrant will not allow an application with missing required fields to be submitted. Missing required information will be followed by a link, Go Fix It!, to go directly to the incomplete section. However, it cannot prevent the submission of incorrect information. It is the applicant’s responsibility to ensure accuracy and correctness of submitted information and documents.

To submit the application, click on the “Submit My Data” button. The application has not been submitted until this button has been clicked. An e-mail confirming that the application has been received by the IAC will be sent to the address connected to the applicant’s Illinois eGrant account. If a confirmation e-mail is not received, please check the address in the User Info.

If the address is correct, verify that the application was indeed submitted. To do this, go to the Illinois eGrant Main Menu and look at the status indicated for the application. If it says “Submitted” then it has been submitted, but if it says “Working”, then the application has not been submitted. Re-open the application by clicking on the green edit button and follow the instructions for submitting an application.

Print a copy of the application for your personal files using the View function from the Main Menu.
