The expenditure eligibility period begins on the day your application is submitted via our electronic platform. If, for example, you submit your application on 25 April for the May session, for which the deadline is 31 May (results published at the beginning of July), the expenditure eligibility period starts on 25 April.    

The only notable exception is that all expenditure relating to the script and writer(s) is eligible retrospectively.

The funds must be used within 24 months of the approval date.
