If you do not already have your Office 365 IUR: You can gain access to your licenses by following these steps.

If you already have your Office 365 IUR: You will not be able to transition your licences until April 2, from this date you have until June 30, 2014 to complete the transition. The procedure is quick and easy – you won’t even need to change your tenant.
