Q: Can the AZ SMART Fund reimburse me for expenditures I incurred and paid for eligible uses prior to the effective date of the program (September 24, 2022)?

A: No. The legislation establishing the AZ SMART Fund did not allow for retroactive reimbursements. Only expenditures incurred and paid after September 24, 2022 are eligible to be included in an application for the AZ SMART Fund.
