I assume you are talking about the "Additional Senior Key Persons" in
the R & R budget form.

Do not use an .xfd file.  Use a .pdf in the same layout as the
original budget forms.  The only places NIH allows a format other
than .pdf is the extra key persons and the sub award budgets.

Not using a .pdf anywhere else will result in an error.  I have not
tested this, but this is what the instructions say.

Notice that when you have more than 8 personnel, including the PI,
that the "Additional  Senior Key Persons" attachment box becomes
yellow.  It is useful that the program knows that there are more than
8 people and tells you to make the attachment.  Too bad that it
cannot put in the names of the people in lines 2-8.

format as the 424.  Does that mean attaching an xfd file with the
additional personnel or should we attach a pdf with the personnel in
the same format as in the 424.

Thanks.
