The grant question you can't answer yet is data, too

Every funder form has one: the question your organisation cannot honestly answer yet — last year's count of people served, documented nowhere. The tempting move is a plausible number. The useful move is a blocked slot: the answer is refused, the missing evidence is named, and the rest of the application keeps moving. Here is what that looks like in a real output.

**Q1 — READY:** River Table is a volunteer-run community food distribution group (N1). It operates a weekly collection and handoff on Saturdays (P1).

**Q2 — BLOCKED:** TO VERIFY — documented count of people served last year.

**Evidence:** N1 maps to volunteer-run purpose; P1 maps to weekly activity. No invented annual beneficiaries. **Submission:** human review required; Q2 incomplete.

Sample data above is fictional, shown so you can judge the output before buying.

What a blocked slot still does

• Names the missing evidence exactly — a documented count of people served last year, not a vague 'more data needed'
• Keeps the supported answers submittable — Q1 is drafted from the organisation's documented purpose and weekly activity, each mapped to its source note
• Becomes a collection task — the missing-evidence queue is the list of what to document before the next application
• Tells the human reviewer the truth — readiness flags mark the submission incomplete instead of letting it look finished

What never happens to a blocked slot

It is not estimated, rounded from a neighbouring figure, or borrowed from a similar organisation. The sample's audit line is blunt: no invented annual beneficiaries. The grant answers skill treats an undocumented slot as a stop sign, not a gap to wallpaper over — and the evidence ledger shows a funder-facing reviewer exactly which answers rest on documents and which one is still waiting for its proof. The drafting method itself is covered in our earlier guide, Answering Grant Application Questions From Your Own Documents.
