PLEASE NOTE: Despite the terminology “Submitted for Approval” and “Approved” within GrantEase, LSC’s initial response related to the submission of required semi-annual reports does not constitute LSC’s approval of the report or confirm the veracity of the information provided. GrantEase’s response merely acknowledges the submission of the required report. LSC reserves the right to contact the grantee with questions and concerns related to the information submitted.
LSC will notify the grantee by returning the report through GrantEase if there are concerns or if anything immediately appears to be missing from the submission.
