INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE TRAVEL & EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENT FORM

Find the Travel & Expense Reimbursement Form at: http://www.lanecc.edu/cops/documents/travel1f.pdf  
You can fill in the form online, however you will not be able to save it.  You will need to print it out.

1. Review the following website for instructions on how to complete the Travel Form: http://www.lanecc.edu/cops/travel.htm
2. Leave the FOAP section blank unless your department is covering some of the cost.
3. After your trip, reconcile your expenses on the bottom half of the Travel Form.
4. Attach all original receipts (and flight itinerary, if applicable).  Receipts for your own meals, which do not exceed per diem rates, are no longer required.
5. Sign the bottom of the Travel Form.
6. Get a signature from the department chair if your department will pay for some of the cost.
7. Check the math!
   The total of your receipts and other relevant expenses must match the reconciliation section of this form exactly. Your reconciliation should not exceed the amount that the Faculty Professional Development program has agreed to award you for this trip (unless your department has agreed to cover the extra costs).
8. Make a copy of the Travel Form and receipts for your records.
9. Return the original form and receipts to Roxanne Young in FPD (Building #3).
10. Please note that your reimbursement may take up to 30 days to process through the FPD office and College Finance.
