Do I need U.S. affiliation or citizenship to be a trainee on a training grant or receive a career award or fellowship?
Yes, with a couple of exceptions: the Pathway to Independence Award(K99/R00) and the International Neuroscience Fellowship (F05). For most other career development and trainingawards, you must be a U.S. citizen, a noncitizen national, or a permanent resident with a valid Alien Registration Receipt Card (i.e. Green Card) at the time of award.
