2nd grant installment

Poor_old_gill

Any ideas of when this is out??

I get the Mayo grant and as far as I can remember it's usually in by the last week in January or the first week in February. I think that the Mayo grant is usually one of the last ones to come in though.

Got mine on the 7th (from wicklow vec)

it depends who pays you

I get mine from Dublin City Council which pays straight into your bank acc. I asked about it in college and they told me that they send a list of students that are still registered, presumably those that sat xmas exams, to DCC who then pay the second instalment. My exams are next week so I expect it in late January, early February. It's probably different depending on colleges.

Spoke to Fingal Co Co this morning who advised that 2nd payment would go out between next week and mid February, depending on the colleges.

Collected mine today from Wicklow. Cheque was dated 10th of December, yet according to the website it only came in today. :rolleyes:

Also, if anyone is going to collect at the moment, be prepared for a long wait. I have to wait 1hour 45 mins today!

To those in receipt of Fingal, the aggresso report came through on 11th February last year: I would imagine that it would be the same this year. Though with the delays experienced August- December last year it is hard to say.

I was told my grant from cork county council was sent to ucd yesterday, so should be available monday or tuesday I'd imagine..

Hey lads, anyone have any word on when the second payment is due to be paid from South Dublin County Council? I'm studying abroad on an Erasmus year from IT Tallaght and things are starting to get a bit close.

Got a text today from Cork VEC saying my second grant installment will be payed on Friday 28th January.

What college you in?

See we're allowed to drop out up until the 31st... so I've a feeling DCC won't be getting a list of re-registered students till after then, so it could be mid-feb before I get mine...

I swear, I dunno what the expect you to live on for the first 3/4 weeks of the semester it's a joke

NUI Galway. I reckon that you'll get it in within the next couple of weeks.

Well, TCD said they're not sending off the list of re-registered students till the 31st... so it seems like it'll be mid february =/

Hi all, I've contacted Fingal Co. Co. many times over the last two months and no word since before Christmas. All they said then was you'll get one after Christmas and one at Easter. I read typically people got 2nd paym. in Jan, last year was later at beginning of Feb. It's Feb 14th and I'm living abroad for the year of study, need money and timescale to budget! Don't know what to tell my parents......Anyone know what's going on? What's with these lists the colleges are sending to the councils.

Well I'm waiting for Fingal Co. Council for UCD. Apparently UCD only confirm attendance on 31st January and the second payment should go into accounts this week. I don't know what college you're with but possibly it's the same story so we should receive it this week.

Hi, yeah I forgot to say, I'm with D.I.T (Aungier & Kevin)

I was into Fingal Co. Co. yesterday. They said most 2nd installments have been paid and it is only if they haven't received confirmation from the College that they haven't paid. I was able to prove that myself yesterday and so bypassed them having to hear back from College so am on the next run of payments next Friday. Payment is always put through bank Thurs night/ Friday morning. If I was you I would contact them myself on Monday to get on the list for Friday. Best of luck!:)

Thank you very much )))))))))
