To be reimbursed for travel expenses, the traveler submits a travel claim expense report in Chrome River by itemizing all travel expenditures and attaching all required receipts and documentation. The expense claim must be approved by both the traveler and PI or designee and routed to the SRA grant specialist for approval. Please note that travel reimbursements are normally issued to an individual requester, except in special instances where the composition of the travel party requires a campus custodian to administer travel funds for several individuals.
When submitting a travel reimbursement claim involving multiple travelers, a travel roster is required in addition to the normal documentation requirements. The travel roster must include the name of each traveler, amount of travel funds expensed for the traveler, and the signature of the traveler acknowledging funds expensed on their behalf.
