The deliverables in the milestone are meant to be delivered before payment is made. If milestone #1 is ready to be delivered, please post links and screenshots in here so that I can judge them.
If you meant for payment to be released to you before and wasn’t aware this is how the milestones were to be interpreted, please propose a new Milestone 1 and reorder your existing milestones behind it.
In the new milestone 1, make sure you can propose deliverables that you can publish existing evidence for. Such as a written plan that you can screenshot or link, or anything else that gives evidence you are making progress toward your grants objectives. You can keep $900 as the first payment, but please make sure the deliverables are strong and you can prove you met them.
