National Institutes of Health (NIH) Eliminates Error Correction Window (5/31/2011)

This notice is a reminder that effective January 25, 2011, the NIH eliminated the error correct window from the application submission process.  Investigators will still have up to two business days to view the application image and submit a corrected/changed application, as long as it is completed before the proposal deadline date and time.  For example, if an application is submitted on the day it is due and Research Foundation staff receives an error/warning message after the 5:00 p.m. deadline, the investigator will not have the opportunity to correct the proposal for any errors, resulting in the proposal not receiving a review from NIH. 

Investigators are asked to please keep in mind the importance for allowing Research Foundation pre-award staff the opportunity to address any eRACommons errors or warnings well before the submission deadline.

For additional information, please refer to NIH Notice NOT-OD-10-123, found at http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/notice-files/not-od-10-123.html
