Submitted an R15 yesterday. I put all the $ in the first period on the R&R form. Received warnings related to budget saying we were over the $300,000 limit. Our direct costs are under $300,000 as are the collaborators. The warnings say Applications that exceed the limit may be delayed in the peer review process or rejected.

Has anyone else received this warning and if so how did you resolve it?

We just submitted an AREA grant with the new funding limit of $300,000 which requires the R&R Budget Form. We received the warning that the budget should be submitted in the first year only. Is this an error because of the change in the amount of funding or should I combine all three years into one budget period? Strangely, none of the e-mails referenced the warning, but it is viewable if we log into Commons.

Thanks for the help!
