PF: Can a Postdoctoral Fellowship project start 12 months after the funding decision?

The start date of the project must not be later than 1 September of the year following the year of signature of the grant agreement. For example, for grant agreement signed in 2027, the latest start date is 1 September 2028. Further information is available on page 7 of the Information note for Marie Skłodowska-Curie Fellows in postdoctoral fellowships - Publications Office of the EU.

DN: What is the latest possible start date for a Doctoral Networks project?

The project has to start in the year of the announcement of the results because of budgetary constraints. However, there is some flexibility, and, if necessary, it is possible to start the project next year. This should be discussed with REA on case-by-case basis.
