To help you understand the details of how your aid is calculated, we suggest you to read here a presentation of these aids issued by the administration (in French).
If you are experiencing difficulties in setting up these aids, you can contact our services. In this way, we will draw up a proposal for a mission to assist in the implementation of these aids, adapted to the specificities of your company.As you can see from the support mentioned above, these aids require special technical expertise. This is why this complementary mission would start as soon as the study on your eligibility is carried out, even if it results in your not being covered.We remain at your disposal for any further information you may require.
