Salary Cap

The NIH salary cap is tied to the Federal Executive pay scale. Where are the applicable policies concerning the salary cap?

Guidance from NIH can be found on NIH's website under the section "Guidance on Salary Limitation for Grants and Cooperative Agreements" for the current fiscal year. NIH's salary cap summary dating back to FY1990 is another helpful resource.
