I've been told that NIH will issue new guidelines saying that the
mandatory verification step at the eRA commons will no longer be
necessary.  Instead, the PI will be responsible for checking that the
application is OK within two days.  If changes need to be
made the PI will hit "Reject" and will have the opportunity to
change it.  If not eRA commons will send grant (automatically?) to review.

Can anyone confirm?

I know that many of you are cheering.  But for some of us, this presents a
dilemma.  I am particularly eager to know whether this reject/failsafe
mechanism might allow the SO to be involved.
