What happens after the grant decision?

Decision and final statement in Prisma

A few days after the grant decision has been published, you can see the decision and final statement for your application on your account in Prisma. A message is shown on Prisma’s starting page under the heading Tasks. Please note that your research colleagues may receive their decisions and final statements before you receive yours, or vice versa.

Approval of terms and conditions – must be signed

If we have approved your application, the document Approval of terms and conditions will be published on your account in Prisma. It describes the terms and conditions for the grant.

You and the head of department (or corresponding) must sign the Approval of terms and conditions as soon as possible – but no later than 90 days after the grant decision. Please note that it may take up to three weeks after the grant decision before the document is published in Prisma.

When does payment of the grant start?

The first payment will normally be made during January. The grant is then paid out monthly, provided the Approval of terms and conditions have been signed.

Is it possible to delay the project start?

Yes, it is up to you and your employer to agree on when the project shall start, as long as this does not affect the availability period of the grant.

For project grants, this usually means that you must start the project within 1 year.
