New Requirement for eRA Commons User IDs for Individuals in a Postdoctoral Project Role with Measurable Effort on an NIH Annual Progress Report (PHS2590)
Notice Number: NOT-OD-09-140
NIH recently announced the newly revised Continuation Progress Report for a DHHS Public Health Service Grant (PHS 2590, rev. 06/09) that now requires a Commons ID for all individuals with a postdoctoral role who participate in a project for at least one person month or more. Use of the Revised PHS 2590 is required for all progress reports due on or after October 1, 2009.
The newly revised instructions and forms are available at http://grants.nih.gov/grants/forms.htm. The Commons ID is required for those in a postdoctoral role on Form Page 7, the All Personnel Report. Note this is another change in the PHS 2590 being implemented, expanding the Senior/Key Personnel Report to an All Personnel Report.
For eSNAP submissions, this new requirement will be implemented in an October 9, 2009 software release of the eRA eSNAP Module as part of the changes to the Edit Business-All Personnel List. Users are encouraged to delay submitting eSNAPs until after October 9, 2009 so that all eSNAPs submitted for FY2010 funding include this required information.
