We have received the hard copy of the contract. The payment should be done by the end of January if there is no any complication in the system. Actually, the student who received grant from both TRF and Newton are advised to use the fund from TRF for the first 6 months and Newton for the last 6 month if they plan to travel during January to March. This due to the process from UK and the financial process in British Council itself not to mention that December and January are the month that consist of many holiday. To speed up and process during this period is impossible. For last year PhD group, the payment from Newton Fund came in late February and we manage to transfer in March. Anyway, I will try my best to do it within the January but I could not promise as there may be some complication.
