1. Submit online forms

Log on to the CBP SmartyGrants website

From SmartyGrants you can access and submit the online forms.

  • EFT banking detail form due by 31 March 2021.
  • Funding deed due by 31 March 2021.

Projects requiring development consent will be allowed until 31 July 2021 to submit their funding deed.

If your project has been completed send an email to CBP2020@dcj.nsw.gov.au

2. Claim grant payment

Your submitted funding deed will be reviewed by CBP. You may be required to provide copies of owner’s consent, public liability insurance (certificate of currency) and development consent if not already provided.

On receipt of all requested information, CBP will review and counter-sign your funding deed. How your grant proceeds to payment will depend on whether your organisation has an ABN or not.

If your organisation has an ABN

You will be emailed:

  • funding deed counter-signed by CBP
  • payment Information confirming that payment of your grant has been scheduled for release.

No invoice is required to be submitted to claim your grant funding.

If your organisation does not have an ABN

You will be emailed

  • funding deed counter-signed by CBP
  • a purchase order to quote when submitting your invoice
  • instructions for invoicing
  • ATO guide to invoicing.

3. Submit progress report

You need to submit a Progress Report by 15 July 2021 regardless of whether your project is paid or not and whether development consent is required.

The progress report form will be uploaded to your SmartyGrants account on 1 July 2021.

If your project has been completed, fill in the completion report instead.

4. Submit completion report

All CBP2020 projects must be completed before 31 March 2022.

Completion reports are required no later than 30 April 2022.
