How to renew a Postdoctoral Fellowship

Hello,

I started my postdoctoral fellowship in February 1st, 2013 and it is supposed that I have to do some paperwork 60 days in advance so FCT renews my contract for one more year.
Is there any web application or official documents that I should fill in to apply for my renewal? I cannot find a way to do it and FCT do not answer my emails (id.bolsas@fct.mctes.pt / id.bolsas@fct.pt). Should I send an email to somewhere else? Need help!!

R.

Hello.

FCT's new email is bolsas@fct.pt (but they should still get id.bolsas@fct.pt I think). Enter your fellowship reference in the subject.
There are no officially predefined documents or web applications.
You must send a letter from your supervisor(s) and host institution supporting the renewal, and another statement where you say you'll be in exclusive dedication.
I recently posted the required materials in http://forum.bolseiros.org/viewtopic.ph ... 590#p32590
It's in Portuguese. If you don't understand, just say something and I'll place it in English.

Good luck.

Obrigado!! That was useful.

I will try that email. I did not know the host institution has to provide a letter too.

I can read Portuguese easily but I am terrible at writing it, so I am not trying here. Sorry about that...
