All formalities relating to the application can be completed online.
The relevant authority responsible for the procedure is the Directorate-General for Planning and Management in Education (Director General de Planificación y Gestión Educativa). The contact details are available on the following page: http://www.educacionyfp.gob.es/servicios-al-ciudadano/informacion-administrativa.html
Processing is done via the website of this Ministry, and authentication can be done in two ways:
- With a user ID or NIE, and password set by the user at the time of registration. Identity is verified by cross-checking data with the Ministry of Interior.
- With an electronic certificate, integrated in the Cl@ve platform. If this form of authentication is used, all queries about the status of the processing must be done in the same way.
Signing is done by entering specific data from the identity document (such as the expiry date, IDESP or IXESP).
No documents have to be submitted to make an application, unless requested.
Objections may be lodged against provisional decisions (within a period of 10 days), and against the final decision (publication of the lists of beneficiaries and the amounts granted, on the Ministry’s website), or as an appeal for review (within a period of one month) or an administrative appeal (two months).
Applications and related formalities are free for applicants, except for the contentious-administrative appeal.
Applications must be submitted within the stated period and, if there is a request for a document, within the period stated in that request.
The Director-General for Planning and Management in Education (Director General de Planificación y Gestión Educativa) will issue the final decision in the call on financial allocations, within a maximum period of six months from when the necessary information provided by public administrations, universities and Autonomous Communities becomes available.
The administrative silence is negative.
