How to begin using the funding

How do you begin using RCF funding?

The funding decision and the related funding terms can be found in the RCF online services. The RCF delivers a copy of the decision to the project’s site of research via the online services. This site is the university, research institute or equivalent that has signed the commitment by the site of research. The site of research manages the project’s funding. Before the RCF can pay the funding, the PI and the site of research must confirm receipt of funding. The site of research invoices the RCF based on actual costs incurred. Please contact the personnel of your own institution, faculty or other research services at the site of research for further guidance.

The decision number is mentioned in the upper right corner of the decision notification.

If you need more information about the use of funding, get in touch via our helpdesk.

Can I apply for changes in the funding decision during the funding period?

In certain circumstances and under certain conditions, you can apply for changes in a funding decision. The application is submitted via the online services. The possible types of changes and the instructions on how to apply for a change can be found in the funding terms and conditions/standard terms for funding attached to the funding decision or on our website (How to use funding > Changes to funding decisions).
