Sponsor Salary Limitations
NIH, OJP, NIFA:
- Based on the U.S. Office of Personnel Management's (OPM) Executive and Senior Executive Service Level Employee Pay Tables for 2023, effective January 1, 2023, the following annual salary limits (exclusive of fringe benefits and F&A) apply for an individual’s salary charged to projects: HHS NIH: $212,100; DOJ OJP: $233,310; USDA NIFA: $183,500.
- Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI): $200,000

- NIH Graduate Student:
- The maximum amount awarded by the NIH for the support of a graduate student on a research grant or a cooperative agreement is tied to the ‘zero level’ National Research Service Award (NRSA) stipend in effect at the time the grant award is issued. The amount provided for compensation includes salary or wages, fringe benefits, and tuition remission. The schedule for NRSA stipends can be found at http://grants.nih.gov/training/nrsa.htm (see Kirschstein-NRSA Stipend Levels near the bottom of the NRSA web page).
- NSF Senior Personnel:
- As a general policy, NSF limits salary compensation for senior project personnel to no more than two months of their regular salary in any one year (Summer through Spring semesters). This limit includes salary compensation received from all NSF-funded grants.
Escalation Factors for Proposal Budgets
Sponsored Research Administration encourages investigators to include a reasonable increase in all budget categories to account for inflation in subsequent budget years. Typical increases for salaries and fringe benefits are 1-5% per year. The section on Graduate Tuition Waivers suggests a 1% escalation factor. Escalation rates may be limited by the sponsor. Consult the sponsor’s guidelines or ask the appropriate SRA administrator what rate is generally accepted by a particular sponsor.
Fringe Benefits
The following information regarding Fringe Benefits Rates is for proposal budget development purposes: Fringe benefits and insurance rates should be clearly stated in every proposal’s budget explanation (a.k.a. narrative, justification), and the accuracy of those fringe benefit and insurance figures is the responsibility of the PI. The PI should include sufficient funds in the proposed budget to ensure that fringe benefits associated with sponsor-paid salaries are sufficient. The following rates should be used in calculating fringe benefits on proposals. See insurance rates in the next section for additional costs.
- The cost of health and/or life insurance should be added to the fringe benefit cost, if applicable to the employee.
- OPS appointments: If the person being appointed to an OPS position also has a regular job at FSU, fringe and health must be budgeted at the same rate as the regular job.
- Terminal Leave (includes Paid Parental Leave) applies only to leave-earning employee
