Due Dates on Holidays/Weekends/NIH Office Closures
When a postmark/submission date falls on a weekend, Federal holiday , or Washington, DC area Federal office closure (NOT-OD-17-041), the application deadline is automatically extended to the next business day.
Note: NIH FOAs are posted with a short grace period which allows applications to be submitted even if the submission deadline shifts beyond the expiration date of the FOA. As always, applicants must check the eRA Commons to view their application and ensure it has successfully made it to NIH.

One of the changes to this Chapter pertains to the format for the Approach subsection, which is reproduced, above. “Justification and Feasibility” and its two subdivisions have been lined out because, with the new approach that we recommend, they are no longer part of the Approach subsection. (We have moved them to the Significance subsection, Chapter 9). Without those components, the formatting for each aim “collapses” to include the Introductory Paragraph, Research Design, Expected Outcomes and Potential Problems & Alternative Strategies.
