DAPLive™: How It Works

Completing your information by phone is the fastest and easiest way for participants to complete the DAP-App Form, and you needn't have a computer or Internet access to complete this process. Here's how it works:

  1. 1. Phone Interview and Review: When you call, you'll be connected with one of our trained Housing Specialists, who will collect information from you during a brief phone interview. This process is typically completed within 15-20 minutes. Be sure to review the information on this page for an overview of what you can expect and a list of information to have on hand when you begin.
  2. 2. Follow-up Discussion and/or E-mail Correspondence: We may contact you by phone or e-mail to gather any additional or missing information needed to complete your DAP-App Form.
  3. 3. DAP-App Form Review: Once we have received all the necessary information from you, your DAP-App Form will be compiled and reviewed for accuracy by one of our Housing Specialists and Processing Team.
  4. 4. DAP Electronically Submitted: We electronically submit your DAP-App Form directly to a Review Manager, typically within 24 hours of finalizing your DAP-App Form.
  5. 5. E-mail Notification: We will contact you by e-mail, typically within 24 hours of your providing us with the necessary information to complete your DAP-App Form. The e-mail(s) will notify you that your information has been completed and offer instructions as to what to expect next in the process.
  6. 6. Signature Page: We will send an e-mail with our attached FPS-Service Agreement. You will be asked to print, sign and fax back to us that agreement prior to the completion of your DAP-App request. Failure to do so in a timely manner may delay the processing of your request. (we can also mail this to you if you prefer). It is very important that you sign the agreement and mail or fax it back to us as soon as possible. You can fax it back at 203.841.2513

IMPORTANT: Your DAP-App Form will not be considered “fully processed” until we receive your FPS-Service Agreement by our office. Any delay in sending this signed agreement may result in award delays or denial of any information pertaining to assistance available.

Hours of Operation

Our standard hours of operation are Monday through Friday, 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. ET. During peak DAP request periods, we will extend office and weekend hours.

Although most telephone interviews are typically completed within 15-20 minutes, we highly recommend that you call no later than one hour before closing to allow ample time for our DAP-App Review and Processing Team to complete your information.

When You Call

If there are more than one person completing this information it is helpful for both parties to be on the phone ready to speak with us, as we will need information from both of you during this process. Placing our call on speaker phone or talking on multiple extensions works well, or you may ask our Housing Specialist to initiate a 3-way call from our Call Center.

If you and the other party are not available to speak with us at the same time, you or the other party can still use the DAPLive™ service. See Information Needed to Complete Your DAP-App Form (below) for details on what information you'll need to have on hand when you call.

*IMPORTANT: Because Down Payment and/or closing cost assistance may often be awarded on a first-come, first-served basis, and there are often specific deadlines associated with its availability per each state, we suggest completing your DAP-App Form as soon as possible after January 1st, or at least 120 days prior to your moving forward in contracting for the purchase of your first home. Please note that not all states offer down payment and/or closing cost assistance, and that there may be some limitation on participants qualifying for some of these federal and state offered assistance. And, participant(s) understand that by completing this process in NO WAY guarantees or warrants any specific down payment and/or closing cost assistance award. Participant(s) understand that ALL state and federal down payment and/or closing cost assistance offered down payment and/or closing cost programs must specifically be applied for directly with the appropriate agency’s mandated to support these programs. FPS may provide contact information to these agencies, and participant(s) understand that if they wish to proceed with finding out more about qualifying for final approval for these available programs that they must formally apply following their specific requirements. Participant(s) understand that the information provided in the DAP-App Form is for informational purposes only and can be used to help plan towards their home ownership goals.
