Requirements
§66.10 Forms for applying for grants.
(a) Scope. (1) This section prescribes
forms and instructions to be used by
governmental organizations (except
hospitals and institutions of higher
§66.11
education operated by a government)
in applying for grants. This section is
not applicable, however, to formula
grant programs which do not require
applicants to apply for funds on a
project basis.
(2) This section applies only to appli-
cations to Federal agencies for grants,
and is not required to be applied by
grantees in dealing with applicants for
subgrants. However, grantees are en-
couraged to avoid more detailed or bur-
densome application requirements for
subgrants.
(b) Authorized forms and instructions
for governmental organizations. (1) In ap-
plying for grants, applicants shall only
use standard application forms or those
prescribed by the granting agency with
the approval of OMB under the Paper-
work Reduction Act of 1980.
(2) Applicants are not required to
submit more than the original and two
copies of preapplications or applica-
tions,
(3) Applicants must follow all appli-
cable instructions that bear OMB
clearance numbers. Federal agencies
may specify and describe the programs,
functions, or activities that will be
used to plan, budget, and evaluate the
work under a grant. Other supple-
mentary instructions may be issued
only with the approval of OMB to the
extent required under the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1980. For any stand-
ard form, except the SF-424 facesheet,
Federal agencies may shade out or in-
struct the applicant to disregard any
line item that is not needed.
(4) When a grantee applies for addi-
tional funding (such as a continuation
or supplemental award) or amends a
previously submitted application, only
the affected pages need be submitted.
Previously submitted pages with infor-
mation that is still current need not be
resubmitted.
$66.11 State plans.
(a) Scope. The statutes for some pro-
grams require States to submit plans

to simplify, consolidate and substitute
plans. This section contains additional
provisions for plans that are subject to
