Worked examples

Counter-examples

Looks similar, but isn't

  • Not an instance

    A short biographical sketch does not substitute for Other Support disclosure.

  • Not an instance

    An NSF current and pending form is not interchangeable with NIH Other Support.

Editorial commentary

NIH Other Support is required at the just-in-time stage and as a Research Performance Progress Report attachment. Following NOT-OD-21-073, the format requires PDF copies of contracts, agreements, and supporting documentation for foreign appointments and resources. Disclosure must cover all foreign and domestic activities, with PI signature certifying completeness. The expanded format substantially increased the operational burden but provides a clearer baseline for compliance with foreign influence policies.
