An itinerary must be attached to the visitor travel claim to illustrate eligible reimbursements.


Allowable Expenses:

  • Return economy air fare with exceptions as permitted only in accordance with Travel General (Transportation – Air).

Option 1: Non-Accountable Expenses

All visitors should be made aware of the fact that T4A or T4A-NR will be issued for the total payment (SIN # or foreign employment number is required).

  • b) In addition, the visitor must supply the Department of Financial and Administrative Services with the appropriate original voucher on a properly completed Travel Expense Claim Form in order to be reimbursed.
  • c) It is the responsibility of the host faculty to ensure the visitor is made fully aware of the allowable expenses and necessary procedures for completion of the travel claim.
  • d) Section C of the Visitor Approval Form is provided for information purposes only concerning other costs associated with the visit. In addition, the host faculty will inform the Bursars Office and Research Office of other costs to be reimbursed to individuals other than the visitor.
