B nning Fiscal Year (FY) 1999, the Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) no longer requires grantees to submit the Luul1 Law Enforcement Block Grants Program Follow-Up Information Form. Instead, BJA has developed a fully integrated on-line Request For Drawdown (RFD) process. Receiving your Award Documents and accepting the Award does not entitle your jurisdiction immediate access to the FY 1999 funds. Prior to actually receiving funds, you must first complete and submit your RFD. Once BJA staff have processed your request, the entire amount of your award will be submitted for payment and electronically transferred to your account. For existing grantees, an e-mail message will be sent to you notifying you that the payment has been made. For security reasons, new grantees will be mailed payment information under separate cover. For questions about your account or the payment process, please call the GMS Hotline at 1-888-549-9901. You can complete the entire RFD process using this web site.
