Payment Claim Deadlines
Colleges should access the Byrd Scholarship Payment Request at My Zone on a regular basis to see if a new payment request roster is available. Byrd payment claims must be submitted electronically within 30 calendar days after payment request rosters are available at My Zone (date on roster). It is important to complete and submit a payment roster on a timely basis so that ISAC can monitor the fund balance throughout the academic year.
Payment Claim Results
ISAC authorizes a voucher in the amount of the payment claim and submits it to the State Comptroller’s Office, which then issues payment to the institution. Voucher information is available online for each Byrd payment request after rosters are processed and a voucher number and voucher date have been entered into the My Zone system by ISAC. The name of the screen changes to Robert C. Byrd Honors Scholarship Program Eligibility Certification/Payment Request Roster –Vouchered after voucher information is entered. A copy of the voucher is sent to the college by ISAC. The recipient’s enrollment status for the term the award was intended should be verified upon receipt of the funds.
As vouchers are received at the school, the Byrd payment system at My Zone should be accessed and used to match payment data to individual student records as well as to the actual payment received from the Comptroller. The recipient’s enrollment status for the term the award was intended should be verified upon receipt of the funds.
