Take note

The illustrations in the Application Forms wiki pages are for consultation purpose only and may not always reflect the latest implementation.

There may be minor changes to the screen appearance and layout which are described on the updated page: How to complete the application form

My Applications allows you to update all of your draft and submitted applications as well as applications that other users have shared with you.

To access My applications, you need to be signed in to the Erasmus+ and European Solidarity Corps platform using a registered EU Login account

This is the main page where you can follow and complete your application, once you have started to apply for an opportunity.

  • If you have not yet started applying for an Opportunity, the list of applications will be empty.
  • If you have many applications you can search or filter the results to show only relevant applications.

Depending on the status of an application (draft or submitted) a number of actions can be performed on an application, such as Edit, Preview, Share, Reopen, View Submission History and Delete.

 

1. Accessing "My Applications" 

In the main menu select Applications and then My Applications. The list of your applications displays.

5. Application Statuses / States

An application form status during the process of submission is either Draft or Submitted. If a draft form is never submitted it becomes Unsubmitted after the submission deadline or if the form is deleted before submission. A previously submitted form that has been cancelled becomes Unsubmitted. The state further defines the status of the application. The status is displayed as a coloured badge and the state is indicated under it. It is displayed when viewing the list of applications from My Applications and in the header of the Application Details. A search filter for application status and states is also available in My Applications.

Below is the list of the three possible statuses and corresponding states:

  1. Draft
    1. Not submitted: this is the initial draft; the application form can be edited and may be incomplete or complete, but not yet submitted.
    2. Reopened: the application was reopened after submission by the applicant before the application deadline; it is still in draft mode and can be resubmitted before the deadline.
    3. Reopened by NA (only submission allowed): the submission deadline has passed but the National Agency has provided an extension. The applicant cannot make any changes on the form but can submit it.
    4. Reopened by NA (editable): the submission deadline has passed but the National Agency has provided an extension. The applicant can make changes on the form prior to submitting it.
  2. Submitted
    1. Submitted: the application was submitted to the relevant National Agency or to the Education, Audiovisual and Cultural Executive Agency (EACEA).
  3. Unsubmitted
    1. Deadline Expired: the form was not submitted by the submission deadline.
    2. Deleted: the form was never submitted and has been deleted. The form can be reopened by the applicant if the submission deadline has not passed.
    3. Cancelled: a previously submitted form was withdrawn from assessment. A cancelled form becomes read-only and can no longer be modified or resubmitted.

Examples of application form status and states

5.1. Submission Deadline and Extensions

Applications for Erasmus+ and European Solidarity Corps have a set deadline, visible on the home screen and in the header of the form. If the deadline expires, applicants will not be able to submit their applications.

An exception is made if the applicant can prove that they tried to apply before the official application deadline and were not able to do so for technical reasons. In such case the applicant must contact their National Agency.

The late application may still be considered for late submission if the following three conditions are met:

  1. The date and time of the last submission attempt as mentioned in the electronic application form History section are before the applicable official application deadline.
  2. The applicant has informed the National Agency within 24 hours after the application deadline (Brussels time). After this time, the request can no longer be considered.
  3. The applicant has sent to the National Agency within 24 hours after the application deadline (Brussels time), by email, a complete application form unmodified after their submission attempt (in pdf form). See how to print the form for details.

The National Agency will then decide whether to accept the late submission or not. If it is accepted, the National Agency will reopen the application and give the applicant permission to either only submit or make changes to the application before submitting it.

The new deadline for submission will be communicated by the National Agency, and the number of days left for late submission is also displayed in the My applications tab. The original call/round deadline remains displayed inside the form.


6. How to process an application from the list

6.1. View / Edit application form details

Choose the Edit option to modify a draft application. After the deadline, this option is replaced by Preview and the application details can no longer be modified. 

An already submitted application may be reopened for edit until its deadline - see Reopen under Actions button.

The following options are available to open the form:

  • Click the blue Form ID to open the application form
  • Click the Actions button to the right of the application, and select Edit (if available) or Preview.

Edit an existing application

6.2. "Actions" button

The Actions button is available to the right of each application in your list. Depending on the type of application, application state and your role, the following options may be available:

  1. Edit: opens the application form in edit mode for further updates. This option is only available for draft applications if the submission deadline has not expired.
  2. Sharing: opens the sharing screen of the form. Available for all application states.
  3. Submission History: opens the submission history screen of the form. Available for all application states.
  4. Preview: opens the application form in Read only mode. Not available for applications in draft, unless the user has read-only access due to sharing.
  5. Reopen: reopens an already submitted application for editing and changes the application state to Reopen. Only available for submitted applications until the submission deadline.
  6. Delete: deletes the selected application form. Not available for submitted applications.

    If the form was submitted in the past but the current state allows deletion via the menu button, a pop-up displays: "Formerly submitted application cannot be deleted"

Below are samples of available selections depending on the status of the application:
