How to Submit a Proposal
Step 1: Go to login.gov to create an account. Help on this step is available via the login.gov help site.
Step 2: Visit the RCPP public portal website to submit a request access form. Applicant will need to enter the same e-mail used for login.gov into the access form.
Please note: new users should use to denote a specific reason access being sought, i.e. “support new proposal submission” or "manage project #1234,” etc. Details are included in the RCPP Notice of Funding Opportunity Proposal Guide for Partners.
Step 3: Wait 3-5 business days for your partner portal account to be created. You will receive an email once access is granted.
Please note: linking a new login.gov account to a portal account is a multi-platform, multi-step process, needing this processing time.
Step 4: After applicant receives an email acknowledging the partner portal account has been created, the applicant can return to the portal and click the login.gov link.
Please note: A longer login.gov identity verification process may occur during the applicant’s first login. This is required if user’s existing Login.gov account does not include eAuth Level 2 identity verification.
