The U.S. Department of Education’s (ED)
Grants Management System (G5) will begin
disbursing payments via the U.S. Department
of Treasury rather than through the Federal
Reserve as in the past. As a result, all
grantees and payees who receive payments
from ED must register in the CCR, the U.S.
Federal Government’s primary registrant
database.
3
Grantees must register their Tax
Identification Number (TIN) and Data
Universal Number System (DUNS) before
March 31, 2010 in the CCR database to allow
for timely processing of this information.
The Department’s Grants Management
System (G5) will begin disbursing payments
to grantees via Treasury on April 19, 2010.

in the CCR” - which informs grantees of the new
requirements.
The Notice Inviting Applicants (NIA) and application
packages will include information on the new
requirements.
Program staff, via listservs or monitoring contacts, have
