Sarah, the co-PIs should be the submitting institution's faculty. If the collaboratoring institution is not being funded, then a letter of collaboration would be sufficient.

Subject: [RESADM-L] Unfunded collaborators on NSF proposals

Hello all,
I have a PI here who has some unfunded collaborators on an NSF proposal. I know that typically if there are unfunded collaborators the collaboration is mentioned in the proposal and letters of support are uploaded to the supplementary documents section. However, my PI would like them listed as Co-PIs and then they show up on our budget with no paid effort. This seems strange to me. I emailed the PO to ask if this was ok and he said he did not know the answer. I could not find anything in the GPG that stated definitively one way or the other if this was ok. Poking around online I found language at other institutions stating that only employees of that institution could be listed as PIs or Co-PIs but it is not clear if this is the policy of the institution or based on NSF policy. Anyone have any experience with this type of situation?

Thanks,
Sarah
