Information About NIH's Electronic Submission of Grant Applications
NIH has converted from the PHS 398
grant application form to the new Standard Form (SF) 424 Research and
Research Related (R&R) data set. This requires electronic
submission through Grants.gov.
- NOT-OD-08-018: NIH Reduces Temporary "Error Correction Window" for Electronic Grant Applications from Five Business Days to Two
Release Date: November 30, 2007
- For updates on the electronic submission of grant applications to the NIH, please visit Electronic Submission of Grant Applications.
In order to provide a secure environment in which to submit their applications, organizations must register with both:
- NIH eRA Commons, which allows NIH to receive applications submitted
through Grants.gov. It also provides a way for NIH and registered users to
communicate electronically after submission. and with Grants.gov.
- Grants.gov, provides organizations with the ability to submit applications
electronically to 26 Federal grant-making agencies. Grants.gov requires a
one-time registration. If an applicant organization has already completed
Grants.gov registration for another Federal agency, they need not register
again.
- For those applicant organizations still needing to register with Grants.gov,
please go to: Grants.gov - Get Registered to obtain registration information.
Applicant organizations and Principal Investigators are encouraged to prepare themselves by completing
registration in both Grants.gov and the NIH eRA Commons now.
It can take several weeks to fully complete the registration process so applicant
organizations are encouraged to start early.
Additional information about electronic submission and NIH's new grant application
forms can be found at Electronic Submission of Grant Applications.
