What is the budget revision procedure?
Budget revision procedures are dependent on funder regulations.  Most funders require revision requests in writing that often need the current budget, proposed changes, and revised budget as well as a written justification to support necessity.  Programs can work with their Grant Accountant to outline funder requirements and develop the budget revision.  If the funder does not require formal documentation in order to revise the budgets, a copy of the revised budget can be forwarded to Grants Administration to input changes.

How do I do a no-cost extension on my federal grant?
The Principal Investigator writes a letter requesting a no-cost extension to Gretchen Hartigan, Associate Director of Grants Administration. The letter should contain the Federal Grant Number, time of requested no-cost extension (usually is one year), and explanation as to why the extension is needed. Reference to dollars should not be listed. The no-cost extension is approved here at the institutional level and faxed to NIH, where approval is automatic and a revised NOGA is generated.
