Frequently Asked Questions
Does it cover computers/software too?
The focus is on production-related technology. Plain office computers generally don't qualify â production automation, machinery, and testing equipment do.
How many days does it take for the money to arrive?
If the documentation is correct, it takes a few months after verification. Incomplete documents can keep a file stuck for years.
