important job skill.</span><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:#433F3F"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

regardless of the system used (Research.gov, FastLane, or Grants.gov) for proposal submission. FastLane supplemental funding request functionality will remain available in parallel for the preparation and submission of new requests until January 27, 2023.<o:p></o:p></p>

the fiscal year (FY) 2023 competitions. With all proposal and submission types soon fully supported in Research.gov, the system will be ready for the transition from FastLane for the preparation and submission of all new proposals in late January 2023, when
the <i>Proposal and Award Policies and Procedures Guide</i> (PAPPG) (NSF 23-1) is effective. The last day to submit new proposals in FastLane is January 27, 2023.<o:p></o:p></p>
