Three things that get applications rejected

Spending money before approval on co-funded programmes like Tamkeen.
Round-number funding requests with no line-by-line breakdown.
Expired CR, or GOSI and LMRA records that are not in order.

Guidance only, not an application channel. Programme terms change — always confirm details with the programme before applying.
