Purpose

This notice informs the applicant and recipient communities of changes to grant application forms and application guide instructions for due dates on or after January 25, 2023.

The following application forms include substantive form changes (i.e., new/deleted/modified fields). All other forms include only an OMB expiration date change.

PHS 398 Research Plan Form
PHS 398 Career Development Award Supplemental Form
PHS 398 Research Training Program Plan
PHS Fellowship Supplemental Form

Key Changes:

For NIH, as part of the implementation of the 2023 NIH Data Management and Sharing Policy, a new Other Plan(s) attachment field has been added to the PHS 398 Research Plan Form and the PHS 398 Career Development Award Supplemental Form. Applicants must attach the required Data Management and Sharing Plan in this new field in FORMS-H applications. See NOT-OD-21-013 and NOT-OD-22-189 for more information. Note: Although the 2023 NIH Data Management and Sharing Policy is not applicable to fellowship and institutional training grant applications, the new attachment field was added for potential future use with other plans.

See High-level Summary of Form Changes in FORMS-H Application Packagesfor a full list of form changes. Participating agencies will notify the community if it is determined additional changes are needed. These changes will be implemented with application form packages identified with a Competition ID of "FORMS-H" and associated application guide instructions. Additional guidance and confirmation of implementation plans will be provided in Fall 2022.

Effective Date

Applicants must use FORMS-H application packages for due dates on or after January 25, 2023 and must use FORMS-G application packages for due dates on or before January 24, 2023. Applications submitted using an incorrect forms package for their intended due date will be withdrawn and removed from funding consideration.

Availability of FORMS-H Application Guides

Application guides for FORMS-H application packages will be posted to the How to Apply - Application Guide page no later than October 25, 2022.

Availability of FORMS-H Application Packages

FORMS-H application packages will be posted as follows:

New funding opportunity announcements (FOAs) will be posted with FORMS-G and/or FORMS-H application packages, as appropriate, beginning October 25, 2022.
New FOAs posted before October 25, 2022 with initial due dates on or after January 25, 2023 will be posted without application forms until updated forms are available. Application packages will be added to these FOAs by November 25, 2022.
