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
[[Page 23817]]
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.
