Hi Eleanor, you've probably seen it already, but if not, check out: https://customerhelp.education.gov.uk/hc/en-gb/community/posts/19769089112466-AAF-Past-Planned-End-Date-including-learners-who-are-in-EPA 👍

Ouch. That makes my head hurt. Is this an NHS Trust by any chance? I've had a couple of NHS Trusts who have undergone mergers be advised by DAS to keep their pre-merger DAS accounts going until they run out of funds in them. I'm just wondering whether there's any chance that the learner will be returning to the same DAS account - in which case, that would be a pretty strong case for saying it's just a return from BiL. (And also just lazily trying to find an easy answer to a difficult question... 🤞)

Thanks Lynne Burdon! For us, a role for dashboard use only would make sense - as I say, it's for sharing it with our School Accountant who isn't involved in the ILR but who would find the finance dashboards useful. It's not a problem though I don't think. There's no problem with data sharing for us in this instance and it would be quite hard to accidentally submit an ILR return ;) Is there an equivalent guide for DfE Sign In accounts? One that lists the various roles and their purposes and gives instructions on how to set up and manage accounts? I can't find one, but I'm probably looking in the wrong places!

So... if you were to reduce the TNP1 to account for an increase in TNP2, would you then be obligated to go back and recalculate RPL discounts and issue contract amendments with revised TNP1 cost breakdowns? (😱)

Oh, now there's a thought! :) Thanks Melanie Aspinall. Are your apprenticeships quite short so you only have to get them to do it the once? I was thinking that we had to get them to redo their declaration every year in case their position changes.

Melanie Aspinall just wondering if you ever got anywhere with this? I did find this online (thank you Newcastle City Council for writing the only thing on this which I'm even close to understanding, and then for being so kind as to make it available online!!): https://www.newcastle.gov.uk/sites/default/files/UK%20Subsidy%20Control%20Confirmation%20and%20Declaration.docx Which I think *might* be the kind of thing we need to do here? I do find it strange that we're required to hold these declarations but that there doesn't seem to be easily findable information about what the criteria for a declaration are - unless I'm missing something, which often turns out to be the case ;)

Anyone heard anything about the April 2022 version of the technical spec?

Hi Lisa, we had a learner in this position and just got word from our case manager that the Funding Rules Policy Team said: Although the funding rules require an apprentice to spend at least 50% of their working time in England we understand that, due to the outbreak, some apprentices will have had no option but to work and train remotely from a location outside of England. Where an apprentice is spending more than 50% of their working time, over the duration of their apprenticeship, outside of England due to coronavirus (COVID-19) they will remain eligible for support. We would advise providers that a note is added to the evidence pack detailing this. For more information, please refer to our Covid-19 guidance - this document is located on GOV.UK: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/coronavirus-covid-19-apprenticeship-programme-response

Hi - hope you don't mind me tailgating your thread! Can you use evidence of learning on the FS aim as evidence of last day of learning date for all aims when recording a BiL? I've only ever used learning on the main component aim before...
