Opportunity Summary:
The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) issued this notice as a practical, administrative heads-up for organizations that planned to apply for HUD Fiscal Year (FY) 2009 grant programs through Grants.gov. Rather than announcing a new pot of money or a specific competitive program, the purpose is to spell out electronic submission expectations and to warn applicants about upcoming changes to the Grants.gov registration process that were scheduled to take effect in January 2009. The central message is that applicants should register early and confirm their ability to submit electronically well before any program deadlines, because delays in registration or system access can derail an otherwise eligible application.
This notice is specifically not aimed at applicants seeking FY 2009 Continuum of Care (CoC) funds. In other words, if an organization was applying under CoC in FY 2009, this particular guidance was not the relevant instruction set for that process. For other HUD FY 2009 grant programs that would be posted on Grants.gov, the notice serves as a compliance and readiness reminder: applicants needed to understand the evolving Grants.gov requirements, complete all required registrations, and ensure their internal submission roles and credentials were in place.
From the Grants.gov listing details, this posting is categorized as "Other" rather than a typical discretionary grant competition, and it is tied to the housing activity area. It carries no cost-sharing or matching requirement because it is not a financial award solicitation; it is informational guidance connected to electronic application submission. It also indicates that there was no application package associated with the notice on Grants.gov, reinforcing that this is not something an applicant submits a proposal to by itself. The posting date was December 10, 2008, and it showed an original and current closing date of August 1, 2009, which functioned more like an expiration window for the guidance rather than a program application deadline.
Eligibility is broadly described as "Others" with further clarification expected in the full notice text, but in practical terms the intended audience is any potential applicant to HUD FY 2009 grant programs that would be made available through Grants.gov, excluding Continuum of Care applicants. The notice directs readers to HUD's Grants website for additional information and context, which would typically include links, updated instructions, and any HUD-specific tips for successfully navigating the federal electronic submission process.
For help, HUD listed the Office of Departmental Grants Management and Oversight as the point of contact, with a phone number (202-708-0667) for applicants who could not access the full announcement electronically or who needed assistance. No single staff person was identified, suggesting callers would be assisted by available office staff. Overall, the opportunity functions as a reminder and instruction bulletin: register early, anticipate Grants.gov registration changes, and make sure electronic submission capability is in place for FY 2009 HUD grant applications (other than Continuum of Care).
FAQs: HUD FY 2009 Grants.gov Electronic Submission Notice (Informational)
1) What is this HUD notice actually for?
This posting is an administrative, practical heads-up for organizations planning to apply for HUD Fiscal Year (FY) 2009 grant programs through Grants.gov.

18) What is the practical risk the notice is trying to prevent?
The notice highlights that registration delays or problems with system access and electronic submission capability can derail an application, even if the organization and project would otherwise be eligible under a specific HUD FY 2009 program.
