Employee Out-of-Pocket Reimbursement
NON-TRAVEL RELATED EXPENSE
Out-of-pocket purchases should be made by employees only. The definition of out-of-pocket reimbursement is the purchase, by personal means, of commodities that are to become ownership of the state, or licenses that are required for employment. Out-of-pocket purchases are NOT the preferred method of payment and should only be used if the vendor does not accept VISA (Pcard) or purchase orders.
Required steps to seek reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses:
• Departmental Budget Manager has approved the purchase.
• Completion of Employee Reimbursement Request form, see link below for instructions.
• Attach all original receipts.
• Completion of Receiving Report form, see link below for instructions.
