I believe that all of our withdrawn proposals had previously shown "Pending IRG review" before they were suddenly labeled "Withdrawn".

Is it safe to assume if our proposals show in eRA Commons as "Pending IRG review" that we have passed the test of such limits (e.g., no more than 10 references)?  Or can we still be notified of a "withdrawal" of application due to such errors?

They are definitely holding these proposals to the limitations posted.  One of our PIs received a letter saying his proposal was removed because he had over 10 references.  We checked and double checked, and appealed because both the PI and co-PI had exactly 10 each.

On appeal, NIH responded that their first finding was incorrect, and that instead the PI had over one page of references (also a limit)... that error finding was valid.
