2017 Marie Curie Individual Fellowship (H2020-MSCA-IF-2017)
Re: Marie Curie Individual Fellowship Forum
Hello guys and girls, I am following the forum, although I did not apply in the 2017 call. I applied in 2016 and my proposal was put on reserve list. So after waiting 18 months in total I still did not receive final decision, although the information letter clearly states that I will be informed and this is not the final decision. I don’t fool myself that it will be funded, but still, I wanted to close this page long time ago and move on....
Anyway, I write you to share my observation about how they inform. In my host institute last year, the rejected ones got the email first, early morning on the 27th, I got my email around midday (reserve), then I spoke with the manager of the institute and he told me that the emails for all the applications but one had arrived. The email for this last one was received in the afternoon, around 4 pm and it was acceptance letter. So I don't think they inform first the high scored ones, rather the other way around, but might be just a coincidence… and in my opinion emailing to all the applicants takes time, may be 20 hours.
I wish you good luck with your proposals and whatever the output is, life goes on, keep strong and continue your research

I really do think that you should require official answer in order to close the loop.
Re: Marie Curie Individual Fellowship Forum
Hi all, I have "Final" as my status. Does anyone know what this might indicate? I seen lots of people with evaluation or ranking but no one has mentioned a "final" status, have they? Thanks.
Re: Marie Curie Individual Fellowship Forum
I think everyone has "final" as their project status on the My Proposals page, the status people are talking about is in a backdoor link that you will find elsewhere in this thread.
Since so many NCPs said it would be next week I guess we must wait until then. But I did look at my emails - and this forum - first thing this morning!

That is true, the taxation is around 40-45%, at least in Portugal where I was a Fellow.
The other thing that happened to me was that they taxed the Project since the beginning by subtracting 12% of the budget and mobility allowance was also taxed.

Sorry, you have already got this fellowship and you apply again? Is this possible?IF-RI to IF-SE wrote: ↑Fri Jan 26, 2018 1:25 pmThat is true, the taxation is around 40-45%, at least in Portugal where I was a Fellow.

I think that sometimes most of the people do not read the terms and conditions of the fellowship they apply for.aberfeldy wrote: ↑Fri Jan 26, 2018 1:27 pmSorry, you have already got this fellowship and you apply again?

First of all, everything is possible, but...
When you get an IF Standard fellowship and you complete it, after 1 year you may apply for the IF-RI (ReIntegration) in order to go back to your country/home Institution.
You cannot apply for an IF-RI if you haven't previously been awarded an IF-ST.
