Charlie - It used to be the case that we could submit NSF proposals through G.g and if the BIO directorate was involved, we needed to go into FastLane for the extra form. You may want to confirm with the NSF program officer that this is still the case now that NSF is allowing G.g submissions again. As to timeframe, the GPG states: "A request for a proposal file update automatically will be accepted if submitted prior to: * the deadline date specified in a program solicitation; * initiation of external peer review in cases when a target date is utilized;36 and * initiation of external peer review in the case of an unsolicited proposal. A request for a proposal file update after the timeframes specified above will require acceptance by the cognizant NSF Program Officer. Such requests may be submitted only to correct a technical problem with the proposal (i.e., formatting or print problems). Changes in the content of the proposal should not be requested after the timeframes specified above. When a request is accepted, the proposed files or revisions to proposal attributes will immediately replace the existing files and become part of the official proposal." Terri Terri M.

Intend to have more. -----Original Message----- From: Research Administration List [mailto:xxxxxx@hrinet.org] On Behalf Of Charlie Hathaway Sent: Monday, July 12, 2010 11:40 AM To: xxxxxx@hrinet.org Subject: [RESADM-L] NSF via Grants.gov We are getting the following warning on NSF proposals being prepared for submission through Grants.gov: Warning: [NSF Cover Page 2.][NSF Warning-0059] This application is being submitted to a BIO program, but the Grants.gov system does not yet support the Proposal Classification Form, which is required by the BIO directorate. Please use NSF's Proposal File Update module in FastLane to complete the BIO form. Note that proposal file updates will not be accepted after certain timeframes. Please refer to the GPG Chapter III.C for more information. Does this mean that we can submit via Gg and then subsequently go into Fastlane to complete the other form? Can anyone translate "certain timeframes"? thanks Charlie ====================================================================== Instructions on how to use the RESADM-L Mailing List, including subscription information and a web-searchable archive, are available via our web site at http://www.hrinet.org (click on "Listserv Lists") ====================================================================== ====================================================================== Instructions on how to use the RESADM-L Mailing List, including subscription information and a web-searchable archive, are available via our web site at http://www.hrinet.org (click on "Listserv Lists") ======================================================================
