The Department of Energy issued FAL Department of Energy Current and Pending Support Disclosure Requirements for Financial Assistance<https://www.energy.gov/sites/default/files/2022-06/FAL%202022-04%20Current%20and%20Pending%20Support%20Disclosures.pdf> on June 1, directing program officers to implement new disclosure requirements for DOE and NNSA awards. Program officers will implement the provisions in new funding announcements effective immediately.

The new provisions include certification about the completeness and accuracy of current and pending support, disclosure of past support on an as-needed basis as required in new award announcements, and a reminder about the requirement to disclose participation in foreign talent recruitment programs.

In an effort to reduce administrative burden, DOE supports the use of the NSF-Approved Current and Pending Support format provided it includes the additional required DOE certification.  Specifically, the two approved DOE formats for creating Current & Pending Support is either the (i) NSF SciENcv with accompanying DOE certification; or (ii) NSF-Fillable Current and Pending Support PDF (with the DOE certification).  To assist researchers, SPA has created two resources:

  *   DOE Current & Pending Support Certification for Use with SciENcv
  *   NSF Fillable PDF with DOE Certification<https://research.ucr.edu/document/nsf-fillable-cps-form-doe-certification>

For further information, please visit the newly created SPA webpage entitled, “DOE's Disclosure Requirements for Current & Pending Support<https://research.ucr.edu/does-disclosure-requirements-current-pending-support>.”  ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
