Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds
Second Tranche Submission Preparation Checklist
1. Verify entity type and eligibility. Treasury will distribute second tranche funds directly to eligible
state, territorial, metropolitan city, and county governments. To determine if you are an entity
eligible to receive second tranche funds directly from Treasury under the Coronavirus State and
Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (SLFRF) program, please review the appropriate allocation list for
your entity type.
• Allocation for States (PDF) / Allocation for States (CSV)
• Allocation for Territories (PDF) / Allocation for Territories (CSV)
• Allocation for Counties (PDF) / Allocation for Counties (CSV)*
• Allocation for Metropolitan Cities (PDF) / Allocation for Metropolitan Cities (CSV)
*GUIDANCE ON COUNTIES THAT ARE NOT UNITS OF GENERAL LOCAL GOVERNMENT
If your entity is not on any of the allocation lists above, it may qualify as a non-entitlement
unit of local government (NEU). NEUs and counties that are not units of general local
government (non-UGLG counties) should not submit any documentation through Treasury’s
Submission Portal to receive a direct payment from Treasury. Treasury will provide funding to
states and territories to distribute the SLFRF payments to the eligible NEUs in their jurisdiction in
accordance with section 603(b)(2) of the Social Security Act, Treasury’s implementing
regulations, and guidance. Likewise, Treasury will provide funding to states in which there are
non-UGLG counties to distribute the SLFRF payments to the eligible units of general local
government in such non-UGLG counties in accordance with section 603(b)(3)(B)(ii) of the Social
Security Act, Treasury’s implementing regulations, and guidance.
2. Ensure the entity has an active SAM registration. SAM is the official government-wide database
to register with to be eligible to do business with the U.S. government. All Federal financial
assistance recipients must register on SAM.gov and renew their SAM registration annually and
maintain an active status to be eligible to receive Federal financial assistance. There is no charge
to register or maintain your entity SAM registration.
• For entities with an existing SAM registration, they should ensure the registration is still
active. To check the entity registration status, visit SAM.gov and search for the entity’s
UEI number. If your entity’s registration is active, you should see “Active” with a green
dot next to your entity name.
• For entities that do not have an active SAM registration, they should visit SAM.gov to
begin the entity registration or renewal process. Please note that SAM registration can
take up to three weeks; delay in registering in SAM could impact timely payment of
funds. Click here for a quick overview for SAM registration or here if you need to renew
or update an entity.
3. Determine if your entity will need to make any updates to the submission. Recipients should
be prepared to review and update the following information:
• Name, title, email and phone number of an authorized representative of the entity – this
is the person who can legally bind the entity.
• Name, title, email and phone number of a designed point of contact – this is the person
who will receive email notifications on the status of your submission, including any issues
found during the verification, and communications regarding payments.
• Financial institution information (e.g., routing and account number, financial institution
name and contact information).
Please note that these fields will be prepopulated with the information you provided during your
first tranche submission. If no updates need to be made, you will still need to confirm this
information under your entity’s second tranche submission in the Treasury Submission Portal.
4. Ensure communications from Treasury can be received to the point of contact email address
provided. The designated POC will receive crucial information via email throughout the
submission verification process. Recipients should work with their IT department to ensure that
emails from the @treasury.gov domain will arrive without being blocked (a process commonly
known as ‘whitelisting.’)
5. Complete the second tranche submission once a notification is received from Treasury to enter
the Treasury Submission Portal. Visit the Treasury Submission Portal.
• If the recipient wishes to designate a new submitter, that individual will need to
register/log-in with ID.me.
o ID.me is a trusted technology partner to multiple government agencies and
healthcare providers. It provides secure digital identity verification to those
government agencies and healthcare providers to make sure you're you – and
not someone pretending to be you – when you request access to online services.
Treasury receives only your name and email address and the assurance that your
identification has been verified. All personally identifiable information provided
to ID.me is encrypted and disclosed only with the express consent of the user.
Once you register, your login credentials can be used to reenter the portal in the
future.
o The current authorized representative (the one listed on the first tranche
submission) should email COVIDReliefITSupport@treasury.gov with the subject
“Entity Name - Update to Designated Individuals.” The email should include the
role that needs to be updated along with the full name, title, email and phone
number of the new person designated. This will ensure alignment of the SLT
submission to the newly designated submitter’s account.
o Once complete, and the individual has been assigned the role as submitter, they
should enter the portal and complete the second tranche submission.
• If you are already the designated entity submitter and are returning to the portal:
o Once you sign in, select the "Second Tranche" link (circled in red) for your existing
SLT submission ID as illustrated in the screenshot below.
o Once you have selected the link, you will see the Portal instructions for your
entity’s second tranche submission. Please follow the instructions to successfully
submit.
For Local Governments: Second Tranche payments remain subject to the Award
Terms and Conditions previously accepted by the recipient in connection with the
first tranche payment and the Authorized Representative will not need to sign the
second tranche certification to receive the second tranche payment.
For State Governments: Second Tranche payments remain subject to the Award
Terms and Conditions previously accepted by the recipient in connection with the
first tranche payment; however, the Authorized Representative must sign the second
tranche certification to receive the second tranche payment. The second tranche
certification form will be sent to the Authorized Representative to start the DocuSign
process. Once complete, the status of your submission will change from “Awaiting
Signature” to “Submitted”. The Point of Contact for your entity may check the status
of the submission at any time during the process.
6. Tips for submitting in the Treasury Submission Portal.
Confirm the contact information for your authorized representative and point of contact is
correct – double check for typos in email addresses and phone numbers.
Double check the banking information – ensure you have the correct routing numbers and
account numbers.
If you leave the portal before your submission is complete, click “Save Information”.
