  • Air & Ground Travel - keep the following in mind when purchasing your travel tickets
    • Per UC Policy we will only reimburse Coach class or Economy tickets 
    • Receipts must include itinerary, total cost, and proof of purchase (e.g. VISA -1234)
    • You can purchase airfare through sites like Expedia and Kayak as long as it meets the above two requirements.
    • DO NOT purchase package deals (airfare & rental or airfare & hotel)
    • DO NOT purchase from Hotwire as they do not show a breakdown of expenses. 
    • Fly America Act
    • Fly America Act and Open Skies Agreements (Note: applies to international trips only)
  • Rental Cars - if you are not booking through Connexxus, please be aware of the following: 
    • The University will not reimburse travelers for the purchase of Collision Damage Waiver (CDW), Loss Damage Waiver (LDW), SLI or Personal Accident Insurance (PAI) 
    • The following car classes are acceptable for reimbursement: Intermediate, Economy, Compact 
    • Receipts and a copy of the rental agreement are required 
  • Policy states "Lodging expense reimbursements are actual up to $275 per night before taxes and mandatory hotel fees and must be supported by original itemized receipt." (G-28, V.E.2.a.i, pg 24). Per UCSB Business and Financial Services, "Early check in is optional, so not reimbursable." For hotel arrangements over the maximum lodging limit of $275/night, a Lodging Justification Form with a price comparison must be included in your packet.
  • Please paste your receipts to the Missing Itemized Receipt Form
  • If receipts are in foreign language, please provide translation of each line item.
  • Prior approval is required for utilization of state funds. 
  • When submitting for a Travel Advance, please provide proof of activity & any helpful supplemental documentation. 
  • If you have received a Travel Advance, a Travel Reimbursement Form (at the completion of the trip) must be turned into Financial Services as well.
