No, it says very clearly in the eligible part: "Legal resident of the 50 United States and District of Columbia 18 years of age or older". However, you may find some promotion in Canada from your local Microsfot branch.Anonymous

"May not be combined with other app offers with the exception of offers within the App Builder Program." from the terms and conditions. I am currently participating in the Windows 8 App Challenge (www.facebook.com/Windows8AppChallenge) for students. Does this mean we can't submit the same app to both?Anonymous

If an app was submitted and accepted on the Windows Store as part of this offer, could the same app be reworked and submitted to the Windows Phone Store and also qualify even though the two apps would be substantially similar? Based on what I read, the answer is yes, although it is not specifically stated.Anonymous

To K, You are right, you can't use the same app for both programs. However, after the Student Wins8App Challenge program is over (4/11), you can submit for this $2000 cash program.Anonymous

To Dr. K: If you submit the apps for different stores (Windows 8 and Windows Phone), I think it should be fine. I will double check for you.Anonymous

Hi Doris, any response from the double checking on this?Anonymous

Dr. K, It's probably the best if you can post your question on www.facebook.com/MSFTDev.US so you can get the answer directly from the one who runs the program. Thanks, Doris
