Dear Rituparna,
We do not have a sample timeline per se, but there are two places to indicate the dates of your project. The question "Please indicate your proposed project dates and duration" should mean the bulk of your field research/active time working on the project (could be creating a film, writing an article, dissertation, or book chapter, etc.) or when you'd actively be using your grant funding for expenses.
The latter question, "Please provide a schedule of expected completion of the project and publication," is where you should indicate the anticipated book publication date, which could be much later than the date the grant project was completed.
As for the per diem, that would cover daily meal/ground cover costs if you had to do on-the-ground research/interviews about your project (as an example).

Hello,
My grant proposal is aimed at converting my PhD thesis into a published book. I will be applying for a one-year grant. I wanted to know if the timeline we provide with the application has to necessarily reflect the completion of the project all the way to its publication, or just covering the research and writing bits would be sufficient? It would help to see a sample timeline document, if feasible.
Also, I haven't put together a sample budget for a grant proposal earlier. Could you explain how to factor in the 'per diem' rates available at https://skatteverket.se/privat/skatter/arbeteochinkomst/traktamente/utlandstraktamente.4.2b543913a42158acf800016035.html? What all is it applicable to and how does it reflect in our budget document?
With thanks,
Rituparna

Please post any questions you have regarding the CHSS program applications on this thread!
Here are a few changes to the application since last year:
- Only one letter of reference is required. While you may still enter two referees, only one letter is required for your application to be reviewed by the committee. Are you a referee? You can preview the applicant's application in progress via the download link included in the reference request email.
- Collaborator access to your application. Once you have started an application, you can manage "collaborators" to your application (teammates and co-pi's) by selecting the "Manage Collaborators" button.
- Want to view your application from last year? If you are logged into your account from the prior year, simply navigate to "My Applications" then "Archived". Select the application you'd like to view or print.
