It may take up to three weeks before the document is published in Prisma. You and the head of department/corresponding must sign this as soon as possible, but no later than within 90 days.
Payment of the grant will normally start no earlier than January 2018, and it will be paid out monthly on condition that the “Approval of Conditions” have been signed. Your HEI will then administer the payments to you.
