The NIH policy is to provide full indirect cost recovery as appropriate for the type of grant and the terms and conditions of the award. This policy applies to these temporary relocations. If a project is temporarily relocated and a consortium is developed between the two institutions, the host institution can receive their full F&A costs. If deemed necessary, administrative supplements may be requested to provide additional funds, but are subject to the availability of funds.
