Salary MSCA-GF very low!

Dear all,

I am a MSCA-GF, with an outgoing phase in USGS Boulder, CO and an incoming at LSCE-CNRS, Paris.

I just got my first salary and it is very low as they are applying 60%  taxes on the initial grant. The results is that I cannot live in this US state with a family member in charge with that salary.

We are at present trying to negotiate with the CNRS so they either dont apply taxes on the family and mobility allowances or they use them directly to pay our rent, as stated in the annotated model grant agreement.

Has anybody have any experience with that? any information would be extremely appreciated.

I leave my email: ncatalangarcia@gmail.com

Best regards,

Núria
