I applied online for grant for hair salons. I filled out and submitted. Thinking the app over, I put in my professional license # and wondered if it wanted my establishment # also. I called the help # and asked which # they wanted. He said he didn’t know. He called me back and said to enter both and he would back me out. I resubmitted with both #s. Then I get a denial because of dual application. This is just wrong. I only did what I was told. If I have to close my doors, a booth rental will close also. This grant would help.
