Need help? Please email TIGERGrants@dot.gov with “Pre-App Help” in the subject line and a detailed description of the issue you are having including screen shots.
Important User Information:
  • THE PRE-APPLICATION IS REQUIRED. IF AN APPLICANT DOES NOT SUBMIT A PRE-APPLICATION, THE FINAL APPLICATION WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED.
  • A Pre-Application must be completed in one session within 30 minutes of creating the new Pre-Application. An incomplete Pre-Application cannot be saved and will time out after 30 minutes, so you must have all required information before you begin. A Pre-Application should take approximately 10 minutes to complete with all required information on hand.
  • A successful Pre-Application submission will automatically generate a unique TIGER ID. This TIGER ID will be used to match the Pre-Application data with the Grants.gov Final Application data. For more information on TIGER IDs, see the “TIGER ID” section on page 9.
  • Microsoft Internet Explorer (versions 8 through 11) is the optimal browser for TIGER Pre-Application submission. Other browsers may not be supported.
  • Do not use mobile devices (such as smartphones, iPads, and other tablets) to submit a TIGER Pre-Application. Devices such as these are not supported.
  • Depending on Pre-Application site traffic, pages may load slowly. Please be patient while the page is loading; it may take as long as 15-20 seconds for site pages to load. If it takes longer than 20 seconds for the page to load, please reload/refresh the page (press F5).
  • The system will be UNAVAILABLE Monday-Saturday during the hours of 6AM-7AM EDT and Sunday from 6AM-1PM EDT due to scheduled maintenance.
  • TIGERGrants@dot.gov will be monitored Monday-Friday, 8AM-5PM EDT.
