Good Afternoon,

As a follow up to our communication regarding the release by NIH of their updated forms (Forms-G), we can confirm that Forms-G will be supported by UVMClick starting on January 6, 2022. If you are planning to submit an NIH proposal with a deadline date on or after 1/25/2022, you will be able to build this proposal starting on January 6.

An overview of what has been changed with Forms-G can be found here. A few important changes to highlight include:

eRA Commons username REQUIRED

ALL individuals listed as senior/key personnel will require an eRA Commons username (Commons ID) entered in to the “Credential, e.g. agency login” field on the R&R Senior/Key Person Profile (Expanded) from (NOT-OD-21-109).

If needed, senior/key personnel must request an eRA Commons account be setup on their behalf by an eRA Commons Signing Official or Account Administrator at their home institution.
To avoid delays, it is best to have all accounts set up well in advance of your submission deadline.

UEI replaces DUNS

The Organizational DUNS is replaced by the Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) as a way of identifying the submitting organization.

UVM’s UEI is: Z94KLERAG5V9

If you need help determining if your planned submission is affected by this transition, please reach out to your assigned SPA Research Administrator.

Be well - Julie
