Financial Support - How does it work?

Every participant from abroad, i.e. not Garching or Munich, will be granted financial support of 80€/day given that the required minimum stay of 10 days is fulfilled.

You can choose between:

Option A: Reimbursement on receipts

Option B: Honorarium + allowances

How to calculate the total amount:

• Count number of weekdays at the programme + days of the weekend(s) in between [at which you are staying in the Garching/Munich area].
• Multiply number of days with 80€ = total amount.
• In case you arrive before your first day at MIAPbP (+ 40€) or leave after your last day at MIAPbP (+ 40€) please add the sum to the total amount.
• In case you are eligible for family support, you will receive 120€/day (for 1 child + 20€/day per sibling) instead of 80€. For an earlier arrival or later departure you will receive 60€ (instead of 40€) if accompanied by your family. Allowances are as indicated below.

What is the difference between option A and B?

Option A is a mixture of refund on receipts and an allowance for meals and expenses. You have to provide original invoices (for travel, accommodation, public transportation). In case MIAPbP does not cover an invoice completely, we will return the original after noting the amount covered by MIAPbP.

Please make sure to have the invoices issued to your home address.

Option B is a mixture of honorarium and daily allowances. It therefore includes a taxable income. You will have to sign an honorarium contract and do not have to provide any receipts.

You stay at MIAPbP for two weeks (10 working days) and arrive one day before and leave one day after your participation in the program. This makes a total of 12 days of participation (12 x 80€) and additional financial support for your day of arrival and departure (2 x 40€). There is one day with a social event.
