Review & Approve: Eligibility Check

Where the Program Manager has enabled the Eligibility Check step for a funding program, the workflow will update in the Application Round stage accordingly.

When a user selects the Eligibility Check step (enabled once the Application Round is published), a screen displays showing commenced or received applications.

Once an application status reads as "Submitted", an Eligibility Check can be performed by program members with the Assessment Panel permission.

Check Eligibility

In the Application table, select Check Eligibility for applications with a status of Submitted.

The Recipient's application displays in a new window, their submission content displays on the left-side of the window, and an Eligibility review displays on the right. To start a review, select Review.

Follow the instructions to reach a decision, enter comments to explain the reason for the decision, and select the Yes or No decision button.

Enter comments about the eligibility decision and choose either Yes (the Recipient is eligible for formal review) or No (the Recipient is ineligible to proceed to formal review) decision - the Eligibility review is then marked as complete and the application can move to the next stage.

Once at least one Eligibility Check has been completed, the next step opens - Review Preparation & Assign Assessors.
