Many funders allow recipients to request an extension to the end date of their award to continue work on the project with any remaining funds. This is called a no cost time extension (NCE) and may require a written justification and an estimate of the remaining funds. A NCE cannot be requested merely for the purpose of using unspent funds. NCE requests must be reviewed, approved, and communicated to the funder by OSP. This form can be used to contact your OSP contracts and grants officer to initiate a NCE request with a funder.
