Know when a new NIH domestic subaward needs prior approval.

This tool helps a grants office apply the narrow rule in NOT-OD-26-062: a new domestic subaward added post-award requires NIH prior approval when the arrangement was not part of the peer-reviewed and approved application.

01

Enter the approved baseline.

Upload the Notice of Award or approved budget PDF, or manually enter approved subrecipients when the source document is not available.

02

Describe the proposed change.

The required facts are explicit: subaward, new to project, absent from the approved application, and domestic.

03

Review the determination.

The tool returns required, not required, or human review, plus the rule path, citation, draft request, and audit trail.
