The Guarantee says that upon receipt of the corresponding amount for the purpose of processing an application for Grenada Economic Citizenship for Mr./ Mrs._________________ the funds will be placed in a special account and will be released upon the following: 

In the event that citizenship is granted to you, the full amount will be transferred to a CCP Inc. account, upon presentation of an approval letter from the Government of Grenada. 
In the event that your application is denied or approval is not received within 90 days, the full amount will be transferred within two (2) working days to you. 

 This Guarantee comes into effect upon receipt of funds on the corresponding account and expires upon return of funds to yourself or payment to CCP Inc.

  Guarantee is issued to the name of the applicant and can be mailed directly to your address or to the address of your bank officer (from where the funds will be transferred) according to your choice. The guarantee can be also wired to your bank by S.W.I.F.T. or TELEX.

For example, if you are applying for the family, the cost for the application for the citizenship of Grenada is US$ 55,000 you'd paid already US$ 5,000 for the conducting of due-diligence, so the amount you want National Bank to Guarantee you is US$ 50,000.
