I completed the whole survey and uploaded everything on time as far as I can tell. I just got that email notice of "AUTOMATIC NOTIFICATION-DO NOT REPLY" this morning which is weird since I submitted everything last week. I just looked at the checklist again and I noticed a new number at the bottom of the checklist that says 72 / 5. I wonder if it means anything

Well I guess we got our answer for duration of funding ... are you guys still putting your start date on the 5770 form as between 8/2012 and 9/2012 as specified in the instructions, or are you just assuming this is a typo and putting a real start date as sometime around 9/2014?

Under the Fellowship Information Inventory there are a number of different tabs that are all part of the "questionnaire" that we have to complete. One of these tabs is named "files". You can upload any necessary documentation here. As far as the official transcript goes, my university (and many others I presume) has a system setup where you can receive official transcripts via email. I simply ordered one for myself, and then uploaded it with the other necessary documents. Under the instructions regarding the official transcript it says:
OFFICIAL COPY OF CURRENT TRANSCRIPT (REQUIRED; you will need to upload it into the questionnaire)
The fact that we will need to upload the document ourselves suggests that we're going to have to "handle" it in some way. If your institution doesn't offer an official pdf version, it may be that you will have to upload a scanned version of a hard copy...?
Thanks! I am trying to get my school to do the official transcript via PDF but I'm not sure if they'll budge on it. Otherwise, I guess we will just scan and upload if no other option available, and/or send by snail mail if that's preferred

Hi everyone --
Long time listener first time caller. Congrats to all on the successful wait.
I have received a little info from Brittany Gibau that is not the most critical stuff in the world but may be useful to some:
1. There is no EPA STAR conference in 2014. So for those of us who applied for 2 years of funding and ended up with 1 because of the delay we may not end up attending a conference at all (unless they take "alumni" in Sept of 2015)
2. The filling out of the International Travel Request Form: It was unclear to me whether we needed to fill this out if we were traveling internationally for a conference in the next 6 months but did NOT intend to use EPA funds. The answer, sensibly, is no, you do not need to fill this out.
Re: official transcript: I have an email out with this question and I'll let y'all know if I hear anything.

Thanks, Mike! very helpful, let me know what you hear

Hello everyone and congrats to all winners! Thanks everyone for keeping this forum going for so long! I finally got my congratulatory email yesterday morning as well and I've decided to join in the forum since I am also having many questions about how to complete the necessary paperwork now. I was EPA-F2013-STAR-A1 Emerging Environmental Approaches & Challenges: Environmental Innovation (A1).
Does anyone know where to upload form 5770? I think it needs to go in the files section of the FII, but it doesn't seem to have any specific upload section like the CV and media forms do .... and I'm also wondering if we scan and upload our own official transcripts because technically if the envelope they're in is opened then they aren't official anymore. If no one has these answers I'll go ahead and ask and let you all know what I find out

I got the paperwork too. For payee information, I just put the info of the lady at my school who's taking care of processing the expense account and tuition. I put down her name and physical address since I assume they are sending checks
