Stipend Payments
In addition to the stipend, dates, conditions, and benefits related to your scholarship/fellowship listed in your agreement letter, the J. Paul Getty Trust may impose guidelines for health and safety that all grantees and visitors may be required to follow, including but not limited to access to office and shared spaces, quarantining, and masking. The Getty may unilaterally terminate this agreement at any time.
The first installment of your grant will be paid on the first week of your arrival. After that, your grant payments will be issued bi-weekly via direct deposit (or checks), every other Friday.
The last installment of your grant will be issued approximately 1-2 weeks before the end of the scholarship to allow time to close bank accounts when necessary.
The Travel Contribution will be issued approximately 4 weeks after your arrival.
Institutional Payments for Scholars
For U.S. scholars, only under special circumstances will the Getty make payments to your U.S. based institution. Due to IRS regulations, the Getty will not make payments to non-U.S. institutions.
Past U.S. scholars have solved this matter by signing over their checks to their institution. To facilitate this task, the Getty, upon request, will pay you the grant in one, two, or three installments, depending on the length of your residency. You need to make sure that your institution can accept your checks because in the past some have not.
Special payment requests must be presented to OSIP at least two months before your arrival at the Getty.
Banking
If you intend to open a U.S. bank account with a J-1 visa, make sure to bring to the U.S. two forms of government issued foreign identification such as: Passport (usually required)
Foreign Driver's License
Foreign Identification Card or National Identity Card
