Reminder-Progress Reports & Approvals If you have a progress report upcoming for an active grant, please take note of whether institutional approvals and/or a budget for the upcoming project year are required. In both cases, internal approvals need to be obtained via an eRA@TU continuation record. The standard internal deadlines apply for obtaining approvals for progress reports. Administrative items are due 7 business days prior to the deadline and final report components are due 4 business days prior to the deadline.
Gina Barnescan assist with the eRA@TU process, developing a budget for the upcoming project year, and providing clarification about whether approvals are necessary.
Common reports that need University approvals are NIH RPPR reports and IES annual reports (varies by report type).
