Proposed Project: SF-424 Research and Related Form-Extension-OMB No. 4040-0001-Grants.gov.
Abstract The SF-424 Research and Related form (R&R) is an OMB approved collection (4040-0001). We propose revising the collection to include changes adopted by the cross-agency R&R working group. This working group established the original proposed collection of 4040-0001 in 2004. The form instructions will also be revised.
This collection will be utilized by up to 26 Federal grant-making agencies. The 4040-0001 collection expires on June 30, 2011. We are requesting a three-year clearance of this collection. The 4040-0001 proposed collection encompasses 14 forms.
There are four requested changes to the SF 424 (R&R) Application for Federal Assistance (Cover) and, there are four requested changes to the R&R Other Project Information form.
These changes to the instructions will increase data quality and clarity for the collection. Agencies will not be required to collect all of the information in the proposed data set. The agency will identify the data that must be provided by applicants through instructions that will accompany the application forms.
