As the comments that remain when the Effort Report is certified will become a part of the permanent Effort Report, and can be reviewed by auditors, this section should only be used to clarify or provide additional relevant detail related to the Effort Report. For example, some individuals receive salary support from NIH K, or other salary awards which allow for effort on other projects to count towards the commitment on the K/salary award. In these instances, the Effort Report can show the effort allocated to the K/salary award and the comments can indicate the specific sponsored projects on which the individual worked.
