Hmmm.  I tried a resubmission after seeing this message, but now I get
an error that, "A resubmission (an amended application) cannot be
submitted if a prior version in the same support year has been awarded."
HUH???

We've not seen this specific error as yet.  However, we have had several
rejected stating that the "parent grant is not funded".  This apparently
is because the project end date for the revision request exceeded the
current end date on the parent grant.  Even if you are requesting
funding that will continue the project into a future no-cost extension,
you have to only show the current dates of the grant (hence we had apps
going in for $400,000 for a five month period since we can't process an
extension as yet)

Also, beware that NOT-09-079 is completely incorrect.  If you are
submitting a Competitive Revision for an R21 that would now require a
detailed budget because the request exceeds the modular budget threshold
you will not get a "warning"  as stated in the Notice.  You get an
"error" and therefore you cannot submit at all - we are now trying to
manipulate the budget to fit on a modular budget form and will include
the detailed budget in the justification.

I have tried contacting Grants.gov, Commons and Grantinfo but I have not
had any response to this major issue.

Hi,

We are trying to submit ARRA Competing Revisions (NIH) that are due on
the 21st and they are being rejected with an error that states either
that the application is a duplicate or that we need permission to submit
corrections.  We have contacted the Grants.gov Help Desk and the Program
Officer as well as others who have been recommended by G.g or NIH, but
no one seems to have the definitive answer.  The PI has also been in
touch with both the program officer and the help desk.   Help Desk at
NIH thinks this is an IT problem -- anyone else experiencing this?

thanks,

Bill
