Parliament Forces Portugal to Pay Its Stalled Graduate Tuition Refund and Stack It With IRS Jovem, Defying the Government's Deficit Warning
On 2 July, PS and Chega approved a bill forcing the State to pay the long-stalled graduate tuition refund (the prémio salarial de qualificações) and let it stack with IRS Jovem. The PSD says the €300M measure risks a deficit. Bachelor's graduates reclaim €697 a year, master's €1,500.
