The National Science Foundation (NSF) is moving its headquarters to Alexandria, VirginiaDue to the move of NSF's Data Center, NSF.gov, FastLane and Research.gov will be unavailable from Friday, June 30 at 6:00 PM until Tuesday, July 4 at 4:00 PM MDT

This move has been scheduled around a holiday weekend to minimize downtime and reduce the impact on the research community and NSF staff. During this outage period, proposals cannot be submitted in FastLane, and project reports and cash requests cannot be submitted in Research.gov. However, previously saved information and uploaded documents in FastLane and Research.gov, including in-process proposals and reports, will be accessible after the Data Center moves.

Looking forward, the physical move to NSF's new headquarters will be phased over a six-week period, beginning Thursday, August 24 through Sunday, October 1. During this time, you may experience delayed response times when trying to communicate with NSF employees who will be in the midst of this move.  Email addresses and phone numbers for NSF employees and NSF offices will not change. 

NSF will have a new mailing address effective Monday, October 2, 2017, as follows:

National Science Foundation
2415 Eisenhower Avenue
Alexandria, VA 22314
