INSPECTION AND GRANT APPLICATIONS ARE OPEN!

 
We’ve made some enhancements to the Applicant Portal. While the layout may look a bit different, the overall process remains unchanged. If you have already received approval for a Grant, your process will not be interrupted.


Applicants who HAVE previously received a MSFH Initial Inspection are able to complete the Prioritization Questionnaire in My Safe Florida Home 1.0 to be sorted into a Grant Group for accessing the Grant Application. Applicants who HAVE NOT yet received a MSFH Initial Inspection are able to complete the Prioritization Questionnaire in My Safe Florida Home 2.0 to be sorted into an Inspection Group for accessing the Inspection Application. The system version has no effect on case processing or funding eligibility.


Once you submit your Prioritization Questionnaire, your case will be sorted into a Prioritization Group. Your Prioritization Group will determine the date an Inspection or Grant Application will be available to you. If the MSFH Program runs out of available funding prior to the date your Group is to be opened, you will not be able to apply for an Inspection or Grant.


On the applicable date, you may complete and submit the Inspection or Grant Application in the Applicant Portal:

  • Group 1 – 60+ Low-Income - August 4th, 2025
  • Group 2 – Other Low-Income - August 18th, 2025
  • Group 3 – 60+ Moderate Income - September 1st, 2025
  • Group 4 – Other Moderate Income - September 15th, 2025
  • Group 5 – General (INSPECTION APPLICATIONS ONLY)* - September 29th, 2025

Access to the Inspection and Grant Applications for all dates is available at 8AM EST.


*Group 5 Applicants are ineligible for Grants and will not be allowed to access Grant Application.
