Can unobligated funds be carried forward?
For most training grants at the NIH, expanded authorities do not apply, thus automatic carryover of an unexpended balance is not permitted. For these grants, carryover of any monies would require awarding component prior approval. However, some NIH ICs have included training grants under the Expanded Authorities. In that case, automatic carryover would be possible. Grantees should consult the notice of award (NoA) and/or the grants management specialist for more specific information.
