The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) has begun its transition to electronic receipt of grant applications. In conjunction with the change from paper to electronic filing, the current PHS 398 application will be replaced by the Standard Form (SF) 424 Research and Related (R&R) application. These changes will be phased in from December 2005 to September 2007. |
Electronic Application Process
There are six steps in the process:
- Prepare to Apply
- Find Opportunity and Download Application Package
- Prepare Application
- Submit Application to Grants.gov
- Check Submission Status in Commons
- Check Assembled Application
Application guides for SF 424 (R&R) forms—Version 2 now available
