NIH GUIDE, Volume 21, Number 38, October 23, 1992



P.T. 34



Keywords:

  Grants Administration/Policy+ 



National Institutes of Health



The National Institutes of Health (NIH) guidelines governing receipt

dates for applications have not changed and may be found on page 4-14

of the PHS Grants Policy Statement (rev. 9/91).  Item 2 in the first

full paragraph in the instructions on page 8 of the revised PHS 398

application (rev 9/91) is applicable to PHS agencies and programs

that do not utilize the NIH Division of Research Grants (DRG).



For grant applications processed through NIH, DRG, the Division of

Research Grants system requires that applications must be RECEIVED by

the published application receipt dates.  However, an application

received after the deadline may be acceptable if it carries a legible

proof-of-mailing date assigned by the carrier and the proof-of-

mailing date is not later than one week prior to the deadline date.
