Award Budget

The combined budget for direct costs for the two year project period may not exceed $100,000. No more than $50,000 in direct costs may be requested in any single year.

The language from the omnibus NIH small research grant program PA is above. The warning was correct if you submitted under PA-13-304.

Hope this helps.

Subject: [RESADM-L] NIH Small Grants (R03) Warnings

Good morning colleagues,

We submitted an R03 proposal through Grants.gov and received these warnings from the Commons:

WARNING

Direct cost requests are limited to $50k a year for this application (PHS 398 Modular Budget, Direct Costs, Direct Cost Less Consortium, F&A). Applications that exceed this limit may be delayed or not accepted for review.

WARNING

Cumulative direct cost requests on the PHS 398 Modular Budget are limited to a total of $100k for this application. Applications that exceed this limit may be delayed or not accepted for review.

WARNING

The project period for this type of application is limited to two years. (1.33.2c)

I have read and re-read the RFA.  The budget parameters are $100,000 in direct costs per year, for up to 3 years.  The warnings tell me that they should be $50,000 per year, for up to 2 years.  Has anyone else seen this?  Help!

Thank you,
Wendi
