The lengthened extension of the correction window should allow applicants sufficient time to correct system identified errors or warnings following on-time submission. 

• Applicants that submit on-time (i.e., by 5:00 p.m. local time on application due date) and receive a Grants.gov tracking number must correct their system identified errors and warnings within the correction window. Applicants submitting for the select opportunities listed above must complete the submission process by the date associated with the FOA for further consideration.
• The AOR/institution is expected to enforce that application changes made within the window are restricted to those necessary to address system-identified errors/warnings. NIH may reject any application that includes additional changes.
• Proof of “on time” submission (e.g., Grants.gov timestamp & tracking number OR help desk ticket number with information verifying system issue outside your control) and description of all changes made within the window must be documented in PHS 398 Cover Letter component of the application
