Welcome to the Office of Budget


	FY 2025 President's Budget:
	On March 11, 2024, President Biden submitted to Congress his FY 2025 Budget request encompassing all Federal agencies - including a proposed budget of $50.1 billion for the NIH, excluding the Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H). The overall request includes discretionary budget authority of $46.4 billion, of which $83 million is for Superfund research activities. Approximately $2.02 billion of the NIH total request is derived from Program Evaluation financing with another $1.71 billion identified as mandatory resources for special type 1 Diabetes ($260 million) and Cancer Moonshot ($1.45 billion) research. In addition to this request, the President’s Budget includes $1.5 billion in discretionary budget authority for the Advanced Research Project Agency for Health (ARPA-H). More information about the ARPA-H request can be found in the separate ARPA-H Congressional Justification. The NIH proposed budget total excludes $2.69 billion to be allocated from $20 billion in mandatory funding across HHS for pandemic preparedness (Public Health and Social Services Emergency Fund chapter).

See the latest funding level table for 324 RCDC categories reported by NIH on the RePORT categorical spending website. This table’s initial view displays actual expenditures for FY 2016 through FY 2023, plus projected expenditures based on current year appropriations and the President’s Budget request for FY 2024 and FY 2025, respectively. Category estimates are updated each year -- as are historical archives which include data from FY 2008 through FY 2015 that can be accessed through scrolling horizontally across table columns.

Important Notes:

The current year (FY 2024) and budget year (FY 2025) dollar amounts provided represents NIH best estimate on what will be funded for the categories. The figures provided are not allocated to or set aside for these categories.
The table does not reconcile mathematically, i.e., it is not category amounts are not additive. Funding included in one area may also be included in other areas. For example, Clinical Research includes Clinical Trials and Supporting Activities.

The Office of Budget intranet site was initially developed and deployed in FY 2009 to streamline and enhance internal workflow between OB, counterpart units within the NIH Office of the Director, and the ICs for budget related topics and activities. The intranet site is accessible only to NIH budget community members and other authorized users. Use the link below to connect to the OB Virtual Library.
