You are reminded that, in accordance with Article R A 8.07 of the Staff Regulations 'the relevant bills shall be grouped so that not more than three claims in respect of each child are submitted in an academic year'.

For this purpose:

- the academic year is defined as the period going from 1st September to 31st August,

- only paid bills can be subject to reimbursement,

- a claim for reimbursement of education fees may only include bills for expenses incurred during a given academic year for a given child,

- bills for one child may be grouped on a claim by periods of term, semester or academic year,

- the months of July and August should be included in the third term, or the second semester, or the academic year,

- for each dependent child, a maximum of 3 claims can be submitted for the reimbursement of expenses incurred during one academic year, therefore, any bill submitted for reimbursement after the third claim will not be reimbursed.

Please make sure that you have received and paid all bills, including those for language courses, rents, etc. relating to the whole academic year 1998/99 before submitting a third and ultimate claim for this academic year.
