I don't think they have a final list yet ready, as there will be people submitting ethical reviews till the end of next week (according to previous posts) and then they will still have to check on those reviews.

The reply to the ethical reviewers is just for clarification of some small issues. I do think that the list is already done and they are waiting just to see if the candidate will answer the ethical aspects correctly. If not she/he might be out from the final list. I agree that they give two weeks for people to answer. But honestly, if I would have received the letter to clarify some issues I would reply within 2 days (MAX) So let's hope that next week something will change about our status to warm up the atmosphere in this forum and we will get emails on 1-2 of February

"The Grant Management Services will be experiencing issues on Monday, 25.01.2021, between 7:30 and 8:10"

Actually, only 40 mins... let's see if this implies to the current phase change from submission to evaluation to ranking....

Ihmo, it's just standard maintenance.
I think, since the deadline is approaching, they are checking whether everything works fine, in order to avoid any misleading information on the D-Day

I’d also say so! but as everyone else in here, I’d also prefer to find some movement in the portal!! 1st of February works fine for me as well haha

[Diatosystem]

I don't know why, but I have the feeling that the D-Day will be on Feb 5th.

ONLY SPECULATION (before create any unmotivated panic ahahah)

This decision-making period is taking way too long. I mean, the review results were due in early December. Taking two more months to compile the list is just absurd. But even more than that: unless the commission itself interferes in the scores, the final results were available sometime in December when the reviews were submitted; so why not simply inform us of the score? This way we will at least have some idea of what to expect...

In my opinion there should be, at least, an intermediase phase in December to inform those not reaching a minimum cutoff so that you can focus on other grants/jobs. 5 months waiting for the results it’s too much in my opinion as well, but I guess there is plenty of bureaucracy involved in the process that makes it that slow... just two of three more weeks guys!!
