Common rules, toolkit and funding schemes

Simplified access

Financial News in Horizon 2020 • CFS*: ”only for payment at the balance (final

payments), when total EU contribution claimed by the beneficiary on the basis of actual costs > 325 000 €“

• Only Actual cost (and unit cost) counts= 406 250 € according to the old rules

• This means only one audit certificate per Grant • CFS is a DIRECT COST and not subcontracting in

Horizon 2020 • In principle all subcontacting is a direct cost=

we get indirect cost (25 %) on those too. • Audit Rules for FP7 remains at 375 k€ or more

for each period. • 25 % coverage for indirect costs

• The link between a particular FSIGN (from the list you have encoded) and a specific project will be made by one of the Participant Contacts (PaCo) (or Coordinator Contacts for the coordinating organisation) of the respective project.
