All Association-supported investigators are required to submit an annual Progress Report each year of the award. The Association examines submitted reports each year to determine whether or not to continue funding, based on the project's current status and results. Required items must be submitted to the Association no later than the Progress Report deadline. Please note that a renewal notification will not be forwarded to you, and continued funding may be delayed, unless the requirements listed below are received by the deadline date.

Online Submission of Annual Progress Reports
The Association's Progress Reporting process was recently updated to enable the online submission of required documents through our Grant Management Site. Forms submitted via email will no longer be accepted.

The following documentation must be uploaded and submitted via the online Progress Report form:
- Scientific Report: The Scientific Report details scientific publications, funding updates, and accomplishments for the year.

- Publications: All submitted manuscripts and published papers relevant to the award must be uploaded with your Progress Report.
Financial Report Required Documents
The following documentation must be uploaded and submitted via the online Progress Report form:
- Financial Report: Use either the 3 Year Financial Report OR 5 Year Financial Report based on the terms of your award. The Financial Report must be submitted as an Excel file. PDF copies of the Financial Report will not be accepted.

Submit Online
The Scientific and Financial Progress Report forms for the specific year of your award (Year 1, Year 2, etc) will be made available online via the Association's
Grant Management Site approximately one month prior to the reporting deadlines. As the reporting deadline approaches, currently-funded researchers will receive an email notification with portal access details and instructions for Report submissions. Forms submitted via email will no longer be accepted.
To complete the online form and upload required files, please log-in to the
Grant Management Site with the username and password associated with your award. If you don't remember your password, access the "
Forgot Password?" link on the log-in screen to receive an email with your account details. Upon logging in, click the
Requirements tab and then click the "Progress Report" or "Financial Report" link (
click here for screenshot). Please carefully review the first page of the online Progress Report to ensure you are in compliance with all Association requirements.
In the event the complete Progress Report (scientific and financial portions) is not received on or before the due date, your current award year total will be reduced by 5%. The reduction, if any, will be deducted from the next scheduled payment(s). If the complete Progress Report is not received within 90 days of the due date, your award will be terminated. Hard copies of the Progress Report will not be accepted.
