TARGET GROUPS: immigrants living in Tyrol permanently and legally, who do not fall under the provisions of the integration agreement. This sponsorship is particularly aimed at women and youngsters, who have immigrated before 1.1.1998. This excludes children and youngsters up to the age of 15 years (required to attend school), asylum seekers, students as well as au-pairs. Working persons can be sponsored only in exceptional cases, since they basically have the option of a sponsorship through the educational grant of the state (update). FIELDS OF SPONSORSHIP German courses for beginners (priority) Advanced German courses No specialisation courses PREREQUISITES The class must be taken by a qualified teacher. The principal residence of the sponsorship seeker must be located in Tyrol. The course must take place in Tyrol. Course attendance of at least 75% (attendance certificate) No receipt of sponsorships through AMS [Public Employment Service Austria], the Federal Government or another state office A sponsorship for the participation in courses, which are already fully sponsored from budget funds of the unit of integration of the JUFF department, is ruled out. VOLUME OF SPONSORSHIP: 50% of the course costs – maximum € 2.30 are refunded per course unit. Applicants with principal residence in Innsbruck are also supported by the city of Innsbruck. This shall not require a separate application – we shall forward the documents directly. I herewith declare that The sponsorship from the state for this group is 45% of the course costs (max. € 2.0). The sponsorship from the city of Innsbruck is also 45%, so that the own contribution of the course participant is only 10%. FORMALITIES: the written application must be directed to the JUFF department and must contain the following details: Name, address, accessibility (telephone, e-mail) of the person attending the course Bank connection, account number, name of the holder of the account, which the sponsorship should be remitted to Declaration that one does not receive any sponsorship from AMS, the Federal Government or another state office (signature) Details about the course, for which sponsorship is requested In order to be informed about a possible sponsorship or its amount in time, we recommend submitting the application before the commencement of the course. PROCESSING 1. Application of the sponsorship seeker 2. Letter of approval with specification of the sponsorship amount 3. Submission of the payment confirmation (payment of the participation fee) and, after completion of the course, submission of the attendance certificate (with at least 75% attendance) 4. Remittance of the sponsorship DATA PROCESSING Sponsorship seekers agree that the entire data required in connection with the processing and ascertainment of the prerequisites for a sponsorship shall be automatically processed according to the data protection regulations. LEGAL ENTITLEMENT There shall be no legal entitlement to the award of a sponsorship. As of May 2014 my principal residence is located in Tyrol. I do not receive any sponsorship from another public authority for attending this course (particularly the educational grant of the state update or a sponsorship through AMS). I am, at the time of attending the course, employed for less than 6 months. I take note of the prerequisites for the granting of a sponsorship of the course costs and declare my consent to the automated processing of my data. I agree that the Tiroler Gebietskrankenkasse (Tyrolean regional medical insurance) may issue information about a possible employment as well as the competent district administrative authority may issue information about whether I had to enter into an integration agreement or not. In case of principal residence in Innsbruck: I agree that my documents shall be forwarded to the city of Innsbruck, so that a sponsorship can be awarded from there too. There shall be no legal entitlement to the award of a sponsorship! Incorrect information shall result in revocation of the sponsorship approval or reclaim of the grant amount! Information about the “Tiroler Fördertransparenzgesetz” [Tyrolean Funding Transparency Act] I am aware that pursuant to the Tyrolean Funding Transparency Act, Law Gazette no. 149/2012, the provincial government is obligated to annually inform the name of the legal entity or the full name of the sponsorship recipient, the ZIP, as well as the type and amount of the sponsorship to the state parliament and to publish the same on the state website in case of state sponsorships over an amount of € 2,000 per type of sponsorship.
