A business trip starts when a traveler on 最快开奖直播搅珠结果 business leaves their normal place of employment or their home for another destination and ends when the traveler is back at home or normal place of employment.听Note that reimbursement is not guaranteed if a request is submitted after 60 days of completing a business trip.

1.听 听Detail all travel to/from the location, meals, lodging, meeting(s)/conference(s) attended, etc., and must include all requested reimbursement for the entirety of the trip. If other 最快开奖直播搅珠结果 travelers were included or paid for, e.g., shared a ride, the name of the other traveler(s) should be noted on the form.

2.听 听Clearly indicate the business purpose of the travel. A business purpose must be descriptive enough to clearly answer any questions regarding who traveled, the necessity of their travel, and the benefit to 最快开奖直播搅珠结果. Below are some examples of appropriate business purposes:

Any differences between the receipt and reimbursement report amounts must be explained.听Scanned copies of receipts may be submitted to the FOC along with the approved reimbursement request. The traveler must keep original receipts until after the travel request form is processed and paid. The paper receipt may be destroyed once the traveler receives payment.

a. Name of the vendor (person or company you paid)

c. A detailed description of what was purchased
d. Amount paid
e. Form of payment (how you paid 鈥 cash, check, or credit card)

2.听 听Legible scanned document of receipt may be acceptable provided they include all the above elements and a dated and signed note from the traveler certifying the scanned document is a true copy of the original.

3.听 听Travel costs of $25 or less per transaction do not require receipts for reimbursement. For example, receipts are required for reimbursement of the cost of taxis, parking, and other travel costs that total more than $25 per fare.

4.听 听When a traveler loses or misplaces receipts needed to obtain reimbursement, the traveler must first attempt to obtain a duplicate receipt from the vendor where feasible.听If a traveler is unsuccessful in getting a duplicate receipt, they may complete a Lost Receipt Form.听A Lost Receipt Form should not be completed on a routine basis (generally no more than three per fiscal year will be accepted), and overuse may result in revocation of the privilege of providing a Lost听Receipt Form in lieu of an original receipt.

5.听 听Lost Receipt Forms are not acceptable for hotel and airfare charges. The Traveler must contact the hotel or the airline and obtain a duplicate receipt in these cases.

C.听 听TRAVEL REIMBURSEMENT TIMELINE

1.听 听Per IRS requirements, reimbursement requests received later than 60 calendar days after completion of the trip must be treated as taxable to the traveler.听Expense reimbursement requests are treated as taking place within a reasonable period if the traveler submits a request for reimbursement that is adequately supported within 60 calendar days of completing a trip, or before the end date of the grant closeout period听if travel is being charged to a Sponsored Program, whichever is sooner. A request is considered submitted on time when the date the traveler signed the form is within 60 calendar days of the completion of the trip, and the total cost of the trip is fully substantiated. Note that in cases where 最快开奖直播搅珠结果 is a sub-recipient of grant funds, the closeout period may be less than 60 days to allow our sponsor to bill for the reimbursements.听With the exception of the 60 calendar day tax rule, the campus CFO or designee, may authorize individual exceptions to this policy upon written justification showing cause for noncompliance.听For information regarding processing the earnings related to late submission of reimbursement requests, please see the 听(log in required; see instructions on the Employees section of the 最快开奖直播搅珠结果 website).

In addition, disciplinary action may be taken under campus Human Resources policies or other appropriate internal policies.

E.听 听FUNDRAISING, RECRUITING, AND TEAM TRAVEL

最快开奖直播搅珠结果 recognizes the unique nature of travel expenses incurred for fundraising, recruiting, team sports, and other specialized activities. If these activities necessitate a deviation from the stated travel policy, reimbursement may be allowed, provided written pre-approval is obtained from the campus VPFA or designee. Campuses should have campus-specific policy and procedures related to these activities.听

F.听 听MIXING BUSINESS TRAVEL WITH PERSONAL TRIPS

If travel expenses are charged to a sponsored award, the documentation for such charges must justify that travel taken by the individual is necessary to the sponsored award. Per OMB鈥檚 Uniform Guidance section: 200.474, 鈥淭ravel costs are the expenses for transportation, lodging, subsistence, and related items incurred by employees who are in travel status on official business of the non-Federal entity [最快开奖直播搅珠结果].

For Federally funded sponsored programs, they must be in accordance with Federal regulations including OMB鈥檚 Uniform Guidance.听Charges split between two or more sponsored programs must demonstrate how the trip specifically benefited each project respectively.
