At the end of every state fiscal year, Ohio’s State Accounting Office shuts down all payment processing for several weeks.
Grantees should carefully consider their funding needs for the period from June 15, 2022 - July 1, 2022, to avoid payment delays and/or cash shortages during the shutdown period. The last day OCD will process grant draw requests will be June 15, 2022. The annual fiscal year cut-off happens at the end of June; in preparation for the financial close-out process grantees should submit requests for funds (draw requests) that are needed for program operations during the shutdown no later than June 15, 2022. Any draw requests received after June 15th will not be processed for payment until July 1, 2022.

ESG-CV Funding Extension Clarification
In the May 5 issue of the OCD Digest, OCD shared HUD's announced extensions for the ESG-CV completion dates. Please see below for additional information on those dates.
Recipients must expend all amounts awarded through their first and second allocations of ESG-CV funds by September 30, 2023.
- This is the date applicable to current ESG-CV grantees. Grantees are encouraged to submit requests for amendment for increased funding through that date, if needed. Grant Managers will begin processing amendments for date extensions. Grantees will need to sign an updated grant agreement.
Administration and HMIS funds necessary for ESG-CV closeout must be expended by December 31, 2023.
- This will apply to COHHIO and the state. All data collections and administrative costs must be expended during the grant period listed on your updated amendment.
If a recipient receives additional funds through reallocation, all of those funds must be expended by June 30, 2024.
- HUD has not yet reallocated ESG-CV funding to Ohio, and we do not know at this time if that will occur. Therefore, this date only applies to what may happen in the future. Should an agency receive reallocated funds from HUD, this date will be reflected in their grant agreement.
