Timely response to FCRA portal queries required; failure to respond may lead to application denial. All registration, renewal and prior-permission applications under the Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Act are processed solely via the FCRA portal; applicants receive system-generated e-mails to view and answer portal queries and must upload complete information/documents on the portal. Failure to respond or to provide complete responses will result in denial of the application, so applicant associations should regularly monitor their portal and e-mail accounts and promptly reply to queries.
