Remember the 31st December deadline
If you have a Countryside Stewardship Capital Grant agreement with a January 2021 start date, the deadline for completing and paying for capital works is 31st December 2022. It is vital that you have evidence to show payment has cleared your bank account before the 31st December, as RPA can ask to see bank statements as part of claim evidence. You then have until 31st March 2023 to submit your claim and supporting evidence to the RPA.
