How do I check the outcome of the time allocation process?

For proposals submitted from Period 110 onward, you can check the outcome of the time allocation process by accessing the p1 interface. This is the same interface you used to prepare and submit your proposal.

To view the results:

  • Log in to the User Portal

  • Select "Check the time allocation information" in the Phase 1 card.

  • Once in the p1 interface, you will see a list of your proposals.

  • Select the proposal you wish to check and scroll down the left menu to the bottom.

  • Click on "OPC (or DPR) Feedback" to view the relevant information, including review comments and scheduling and feasibility comments.

The review comments are provided either by the Panels or by the Distributed Peer Reviewers (DPR), depending on which review channel your proposal was assigned to.

You will receive feedback from the reviewers, which includes comments on the entire proposal and scheduling and feasibility comments provided per run.

The feedback will help you understand the outcome and possibly improve the proposal for re-submission.


To check the outcome of the review for proposals submitted prior to Period 110, follow these steps:

  • Login into the User Portal with your credentials.

  • Select Check the web letters on the left menu.

  • Select the submission period you wish to check.
