I received a phone call to verify my information. They also asked if I was still interested in receiving funding. OF COURSE!!! She gave me a phone number to call if any of my information changes. I wasn't even thing about this until she called. Now I am fixated!!! I hope this is a good sign!!!!

I've wouldn't worry just yet. I've been reading posts from last year and some people who got awards weren't contacted at all and others weren't contacted to verify their information until September. It doesn't seem extremely consistent but I think any kind of contact is a good sign. If you weren't being considered, I don't think you would be contacted.

I too heard from NELRP last night (07/17/09). They verified banking account information; employment, and gave me a number for an NELRP analyst to call if there are any changes. This is now the 2nd time I have heard from them this month. 1st time being July 2. I really hope this is good news for me. My loan debt/salary ratio is about 300%. I work for a disproportionate hospital in Louisiana in the school based health department (for low income children who couldn't otherwise afford healthcare). Guys, I really hope this is good news for me. Good luck to everyone. I know we all need it.

I was contacted friday evening and returned the call today to confirm my info. How early do they notify the recipients??

she told me that the recipients are notified in September and all others notified in October.

I wish someone would call me!

I got the call last week!!! I hope they let us know soon...I can't stand the wait. My debt to income ratio is 307%. I work at a DSH in Newark, NJ. PLEASE! I NEED THE MONEY!

Did anyone just get an email from HRSA asking to Fax two signed contracts? The email talks about the recovery act. When I called to ask about it, the lady just said "I would do what they ask." Then when asked if I got an award she said, "They'll let you know." I'm confused...
