My award number and award amount change each year. How do I report these changes on the ARRA Weekly Reporting Database?
For NIH awards, the full grant number includes the award year; thus the grant number technically changes each year. Although the grant number changes, separating these records in publicly-available reports as two unrelated grants may cause unnecessary confusion. To avoid confusion, when awards are incrementally funded, NIH requests that all grantees continue to use the grant number (and award date) of the original award (e.g. Year 1) even though the number has changed in the second year. See additional information on NIH ARRA non-competing continuation awards. For other awards requiring Section 1512 reporting, please follow your federal agency’s guidance relating to award number and award amount changes. For awards not required to report under section 1512, please update the award amount and award number. Also, please use the Comment field to indicate any change in award number and award amount.
