Hello - so I checked on the governance page and it shows I am “Eligible” for Period 9 rewards, but they look like they were completed Jan 7th - nothing in my Pera wallet.

you signed up as a xGov which means your rewards are locked for a year and you will have to vote on xGov measures in the future to stay eligible for them

check your xgov status here: [https://xgov.algorand.foundation/](https://xgov.algorand.foundation/)

Oh - great - thanks for clarification - I thought the xGov was starting for the next period, but this makes sense now. Will make sure to vote each quarter!  
Cheers

This is what I see on my end:

Hello xGovernor,

You are queued up to become an xGov at the start of the next governance period. If this is your first time enrolling, read the [xGov Guide](https://www.algorand.foundation/xgov-guide) for more details. Visit the [xGov Portal](https://www.algorand.foundation/xgov) to check your status and learn more about the next voting session.

Likey a dumb question, but is the xGov voting on a different schedule to the original governance voting? Looks like I missed 2 voting sessions in xGov!
