Check out the guidance table from NSF’s Policy Office

NSF has issued an updated version of the table entitled NSF Pre-award and Post-award Disclosures Relating to the Biographical Sketch and Current and Pending Support. The updated table, dated January 10, 2022, clarifies what information is expected in the Biographical Sketch, Current and Pending support, Facilities document, and post-award Reports.

The 3-page table includes information regarding start-up packages, in-kind contributions, and teaching commitments provided by proposing organizations as well as by outside organizations.  Of particular use are those items for which Disclosure is not required. For instance, startup packages from your home institution do not need to be disclosed, but startup packages from institutions other than the proposing institution do need to be disclosed in the Current and Pending Support. Also, teaching commitments do not need to be disclosed.

Take a quick look at this as you are preparing to submit your next proposal!

Any questions regarding the contents of the table should be directed to the Policy Office in the Division of Institution and Award Support at policy@nsf.gov.
