Financial Report YEAR 2
FORM C Signature process
1- Download your Form C:
The FORM Cs of a JRU are saved all together in a single PDF file under the name of the Lead Beneficiary. It is the responsibility of the Lead Beneficiary to forward it to his JRUs for signature.
TO DOWNLOAD YOUR FORM C YOU MUST BE LOGGED WITH YOUR SSO ACCOUNT
NO NEED TO SIGN THE FORM C IF COSTS ARE AT ZERO!
2- Get it STAMPED and SIGNED in three original copies, one for the Commission and two for the project office. If the document is lost it will enable us to react very quickly;
3- Request to your auditor 3 original copies of the CFS whenever it was applicable for your institute. Be careful that it is the final version that has been validated;
- Send these documents to the Project Office by Friday 28 Oct 2011

Project Periodic Financial Reports
The Project Periodic Financial Reports are submitted after each reporting period along with the Periodic activity report.
The Project Office is in charge of collecting and consolidating the data from the Lead Beneficiary, who is in turn responsible for gathering the data within their JRUs. The first year reports covers the period from 1st May 2010 to 30 April 2011.
The amount of eligible costs and funding expected in YEAR 1 are available in the file named PROJECT Activity-PPT-CA-V4.xlsx (column T - Year 1 Funding). These amounts are computed from the efforts recorded in PPT throughout Year 1.
Should you deviate from these figures, you should provide justifications at the level of the whole JRU (Lead beneficiary and JRUs), and shortly explain the measures that will be envisaged to correct the situation in YEAR 2. Finally if you cannot match the EC funded-unfunded part, remember to show the number of Effort (PM) audited outside the project and the total value of these Unfunded efforts.
