Cornell also had many concerns regarding the recent electronic submission deadline.
Whatever you do, do not call their GMS Hotline.  They can only help you if you are having problems with the website itself, and they didn't know who to send me to.  I finally found a number to contact and after seven transfers, I got ahold of someone in the IRMD office.

One of our main concerns was how where they getting the Cornell's authorization since the PI does not have signature authority to sign.  I was told that when the user (PI) fills in the screen asking if they have signature authorization, they are assuming the user is filling in the correct information and then OJP is following up with phone calls.  I don't think we ever did get that phone call.

I would like to hear if others had any issues or concerns and how they dealt with it.

I would be interested in talking to anyone who has used the U.S. Department
of Justice electronic application system.  We have run into a number of
problems with the system and the process and wondered how other institutions
dealt with this.  Use of the electronic application system is mandatory for
Office of Justice programs.  You may contact me directly at the e-mail or
phone number below.

For others who have not seen this system yet, the address is
