ARC Grant Scheme - An update from ARC CEO Professor Sue Thomas

Unfortunately, at this stage the ARC will not be moving to longer or blanket extensions because of the cumulative impact this will have on the necessary peer review processes and being able to commence funding in the future.

However, to assist both researchers and research administrators with managing reporting obligations, the ARC will be extending the following deadlines:

  • End of Year Reports – deadline extended from 31 March 2020 to 31 May 2020
  • Annual/Progress Reporting (for applicable projects) – deadline extended from 31 March 2020 to 31 May 2020
  • Final Reports – initial three month extensions will be automatically approved by the ARC on request. Noting that submission dates for final reports vary project by project and that extensions may impact researchers’ eligibility for future applications, it is not practical to provide a blanket extension.
