Requesting Expedited Review We generally review applications for exemption in the order we receive them. We only expedite processing of an application where a written request presents a compelling reason for processing the application ahead of others. This does not mean your application will be immediately approved or denied. Circumstances generally warranting expedited processing include the following.

• A grant to the applicant is pending and the failure to secure the grant may have an adverse impact on the organization's ability to continue operations.

• The purpose of the newly created organization is to provide disaster relief to victims of emergencies such as floods and hurricanes.
