NES Payment Request Results Available Thursday, December 28

12/27/2023

This message is being sent as a follow-up to a December 14 e-Message about the opening of the 2023-24 payment cycle for Nursing Education Scholarships (NES).

Effective Thursday, December 28, NES payment request results will be available to be viewed by schools. The first payment run of this academic year will take place on Wednesday night and payment will continue to run on a nightly basis every weekday.

Complete payment processing details are available on the NES Payment page, but here's a general overview:

  • Payment records that have been saved display a "U" status.
  • Payment records that have been submitted display an "S" status.
  • Only "S" status records will receive payment results.
  • A Payment Results Summary and Invoice Detail Report can be viewed or printed by selecting the Report tab in the NESP system that day after a payment request has been processed. The report includes payment requests, payment exceptions and invoice detail.
  • The Payment Results/Exceptions report should be reviewed the day after submitting payment requests to see if any requests did not process as expected.

Although the first-term NES priority claim deadline date has not yet been determined, schools are urged to submit payment requests as soon as possible, if not already done. Refer to the NES User Guide for detailed information about submitting payment claims.

As more information becomes available, we will share it through our usual means – the FAA Message Board, the NES Program News page and/or this e-Messaging system.
