RESEARCH ANNOUNCEMENTS


New NIH Salary Cap Announced

The Office of Personnel Management has raised the Executive Level II salary cap to $225,700 effective January 1, 2025.

For awards issued in those years that were restricted to Executive Level II (see Salary Cap Summary (FY 1990–Present), including competing awards already issued in FY2025, if adequate funds are available in active awards, and if the salary cap increase is consistent with the institutional base salary, grantees may rebudget to accommodate the current Executive Level II salary level. However, no additional funds will be provided to these grant awards. The salary cap has been updated in InfoEd Proposal Development.

In order to reduce administrative burden for effort reporting, monthly certification dates of 12/1/24to 2/29/25, the new rate would become effective in ECRT on March 1, 2025.
