An entity may not apply for a grant until the entity has registered and pre-qualified through the Grant Accountability and Transparency Act (GATA) website, www.grants.illinois.gov, Grantee Links tab. Registration and pre-qualification are required annually. During pre-qualification, verifications are performed including a check of Federal Debarred and Suspended and status on the Illinois Stop Payment List.
