NSF is pleased to announce that the NSTC-approved Common Forms for the Biographical Sketch and Current and Pending (Other) Support, which are compliant with the new NSF Proposal and Award Policies and Procedures Guide (PAPPG) (NSF 24-1), are now available in SciENcv. These revised formats will be required for proposals submitted or due on or after May 20, 2024. While these revised formats cannot be uploaded to Research.gov or Grants.gov until May 20, 2024, NSF encourages proposers to become familiar with them in preparation for proposal submission in May.  

NSF and our colleagues from the NIH/National Library of Medicine conducted a webinar on Thursday, April 25, at 2:00 PM EST to discuss the revisions to these forms as well as provide a demonstration of the revised functionality to create and download these required proposal documents in SciENcv. This webinar was recorded and is now available for on-demand viewing. 

Any questions regarding this matter should be directed to the Policy Office at policy@nsf.gov.
