PF: How can situations where the actual place of residence differs from the legal place of residence be approached?

According to the definition, if either the residence or main activity of the researcher is in the country of the potential beneficiary, that country would be considered towards the 12-month mobility rule period.

The legal residence and the actual place of residence of a researcher can sometimes differ. The actual place of residence refers to the location where the researcher is physically present and carries out their primary activity. When considering the mobility rule, both the actual place of residence and the place of main activity must be taken into account.

It is crucial to emphasize that the clearance of proposal eligibility will be conducted by the European Research Executive Agency after the call deadline, considering the numerous potential scenarios. Consequently, eligibility for individual applicants (both researchers and institutions) prior to the call deadline cannot be assessed or confirmed. It is the sole responsibility of the applicants to diligently review all eligibility criteria and ensure the provision of accurate information in the submission forms.
