After the collapse of the Republic of Azerbaijan, the state stipend was also cut. After the establishment of Soviet power in Azerbaijan, the report of the special representative sent abroad by the Council of People's Commissars in 1921-1922 to investigate the situation of Azerbaijani students studying abroad at the expense of the state showed that Topchubashov successfully continued his education. It was also mentioned here that Rashid Bey Topchubashov refused to accept the scholarship provided by Soviet Azerbaijan despite his poor financial situation.
