SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On February 25, 2020, we published the NIA 
for the FY 2020 Migrant Education Program CIG Program competition in 
the Federal Register (85 FR 10660).\1\ Due to the national emergency 
declared under the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency 
Assistance Act, resulting in school and organization closures, the 
Department recognizes that additional time is necessary for State 
educational agency applicants to coordinate and complete their 
applications. We are extending the deadline date for transmittal of 
applications in order to allow consortium applicants more time to 
prepare and submit their applications.

the FY 2020 Migrant Education Program CIG competition may resubmit 
applications, but are not required to do so. If a new application is 
not submitted, the Department will use the application that was 
submitted by the original deadline. If a new application is submitted, 
the Department will consider the application that is last submitted and

applications and the deadline for intergovernmental review.
