Policy
Terms of UseThe rules for using the ACF website
By using this website, you agree to these terms.
Submitting on behalf of an organization
Only submit information and documents you are authorized to share. Check the legal name, EIN, mailing address, representative email, and attachment readability before certifying the form. Keep the application reference after successful submission.
The review screen is not a submission receipt. A confirmation records receipt for review, not approval or a commitment to pay by a particular date. Contact ACF if you need to correct a submitted record.
External links and public records
Linked IRS guidance and public-return PDFs are provided for reference. Third-party services have their own terms; use official contact channels to confirm a request involving your organization.
Historical returns describe their respective tax years. If a link is broken or page information appears inaccurate, report the page and relevant document through Contact Us.
Use of content
Content is provided for general information. It may change without notice and is not legal or financial advice.
No guarantee of funding
Nothing on this site is an offer or promise of funding. Submitting a grant application does not create any entitlement to an award, and ACF may decline any application in accordance with its published criteria.
Acceptable use
You agree not to misuse this website: no attempts to access data that is not yours, no submission of false or misleading application information, and no use of ACF's name or logo to imply an endorsement that does not exist.
Intellectual property
The text, design, and logo on this site belong to ACF unless stated otherwise. You may share links to these pages freely.
Liability
Use the website with appropriate care, especially when preparing confidential documents. Nothing in these terms is intended to remove protections or rights that cannot be excluded under applicable law.
Changes to these terms
If these terms change, the updated version will be posted on this page.
