Hello North Star Community,
To align with the SBA's Core NOFO calendar change, the North Star team has made the decision to shift the certification cycle to match the NOFO calendar cycle, which will align with the calendar year (January - December).
FY 2026 Certification will remain closed as the team works diligently to make meaningful updates and incorporating participant feedback, and will launch FY 2027 in January 2027.
More information on exact launch timing will come as we get closer.
