Revising Budget Proposals
If the awarded amount is within 20% of the original request, the PIs need not take any action. Their grants will be issued when at least one of the observations is performed, and as soon as necessary paperworks can be completed.
Procedure for Budget Revision
However, if the awarded amount differs from the proposed request by more than 20%, a revised budget must be submitted.
There is no fixed format for budget revision, nor is there a requirement for an on-line submission. PIs should submit a hardcopy with an institutional signature using a format of their choosing.
Nevertheless, we have prepared a form in PDF and in LaTeX format as a possible cover page for the revised budget.
There is no formal deadline for the submission of a revised budget. However, budget PIs with an observation that has already been performed, or scheduled in the near future, are strongly encouraged to submit a revised budget within 2 weeks of receipt of the official award letter, to enable these grants to be issued in a timely manner.
Please scan the revised budget with an institutional signature and e-mail, as a PDF file, to
Contrary to earlier instructions, hardcopy submission is not required, although it remains an acceptable alternative.
