  The IFMIF Injector, dedicated to high intensity deuteron beams has been designed, built and tested at CEA/Saclay. After acceptance test completion, the Injector has been fully disassembled and prepared for the 2 month long ship trip between Europe and Japan. Beginning of 2014, the 35 large packages have been opened and the Injector re-installation has been performed in March, April and May. The check-out phase is expected in June followed by the production of the first hydrogen plasma and first proton beam. The deuteron beam commissioning is delayed after final tests of all the Injector elements including high power diagnostics. After a brief summary of the achieved results obtained at Saclay, this article reports the different phases from end of 2012 up to the first beam production at Rokkasho.
