RE: Delay in Financial Data Transmission to GAPS
This Message - Announces a delay RFMS processing of financial
transactions.
A delay is occurring in the transmission of financial data from RFMS to GAPS
(Grant Administration and Payment System.) RFMS is continuing to process
batches of Origination and Disbursement data. However, RFMS is unable to
send data to GAPS to increase a school's authorization level when an
institution's disbursements exceed its current authorization. This delay
started on March 23. Schools will notice the delay in the receipt of
Statements of Account. We anticipate resuming normal processing no later
than March 28. We appreciate your patience and understanding while we
resolve this problem. If you have any questions, please contact Pell Grant
Customer Service at 800-474-7268.
