Funds can be requested for disbursement after the Standard Agreement has been fully executed and approved by the Department, and the conditions precedent to disbursement listed in the Standard Agreement (if applicable) have been met.

In addition to the specific conditions for disbursement set by your Standard Agreement, the Department requires a certification of California’s prevailing wage law (NOFA §506), a Department-approved Relocation Plan or Department-issued Certification Regarding Non-Application of Relocation Benefits and Indemnification Agreement (NOFA §504), and evidence of insurance (NOFA §800), to be on file before disbursement of Homekey award funds. We encourage Grantees to submit these forms to their State Grant Management Representative or to the respective inbox as early as possible to prevent potential delays in receiving award funds.
