Some NSF opportunities require the inclusion of forms that are not available for submission through Grants.gov, and therefore you will not see these forms in the Cayuse 424 package. However, after submission through Cayuse, the PI can log into Fastlane and download the supplemental form, and then edit the proposal to add the required form. The applicant will not be able to check the status of an application until this information is provided.

For example, for applications submitted to the Directorate for Biological Sciences or Division of Undergraduate Education, a Classification form or Project Data Form is required to be submitted. PIs can access the Proposal File Update Module via the "Proposal Functions" section of FastLane. Authorized individuals in the organization’s Sponsored Projects Office (or equivalent) can initiate or review requests for proposal file updates using the "Submit Proposals/Supplements/File Updates/Withdrawals" Module via the FastLane "Research Administration Functions.
