Abstract: The U.S. Department of Education Supplemental Information form for the SF–424 is used together with the SF–424, Application for Federal Assistance. Several years ago ED made a decision to switch from the Application for Federal Education Assistance or ED 424 (1890–0017) collection (now 1894–0007) to the SF– 424, in order to adhere with Federal-wide forms standardization and streamlining efforts, especially with widespread agency use of Grants.gov.

There were several data elements/ questions on the ED 424 that were required for applicants and were not included on the SF–424. Therefore, ED put these questions that were already cleared as part of the 1894–0007 collection on a form entitled the, U.S.

Department of Education Supplemental Information for the SF–424. The questions on this form deal with the following areas: Project Director identifying and contact information;

General Education Provision Act Section 427 Assurance; New Potential Grantee; Human Subjects Research; and Infrastructure Programs and Build America, Buy America Act Applicability (BABAA). The ED supplemental information form can be used with any of the SF–424 forms in the SF–424 forms family, as applicable.
