The National Institutes of Health has released an announcement about the new salary cap, Guidance on Salary Limitation for Grants and Cooperative Agreements FY 20 (NOT-OD-20-065).
Effective January 5, 2020, the salary limitation for Executive Level II is $197,300.
For awards issued in those years that were restricted to Executive Level II (see the historical record of the salary cap), including competing awards already issued in FY2020, if adequate funds are available in active awards, and if the salary cap increase is consistent with the institutional base salary, grantees may rebudget funds to accommodate the current Executive Level II salary level.
