A traveler should submit all paperwork at least 15 business days in advance to insure approvals and processing of any necessary travel advances.  \nOnly those employees who have followed University policy and procedures for travel by completing the Travel Authorization Request form will be permitted to travel on University business at the expense of the University.  \nIt is the policy of Lincoln University that the traveler will secure the least expensive airfare and will therefore search all airlines, including low cost carriers when making their own travel arrangements. The University will not pay for first class or business class fares. All other travel related expenses, i.e., meals, etc., will be reimbursed through the Travel Expense Statement (STE) . Employees are expected to limit expenses submitted for reimbursement to business related purposes.  \nThe University will not pay for any unapproved travel expense, travel expense not approved prior to the trip, or travel expense not approved by authorized University personnel.  \nEmployees who are involved in an accident while traveling on business must, within 24 hours, report the incident to their immediate supervisor and Risk Management at x8059 and, if a University vehicle, Fleet Management at x7113 . Vehicles owned, leased, or rented by Lincoln may not be used for personal use unless they have written consent from the appropriate Vice President.  \nWith prior approval, a family member or friend may accompany employees on business travel, when the presence of a companion will not interfere with successful completion of business objectives. Generally, employees are also permitted to combine personal travel with business travel, as long as time away from work is approved and as long as a Fleet Management vehicle is not used. Additional expenses arising from such non-business travel are the responsibility of the employee.  \nWhen travel is completed, employees should submit a completed Statement of Travel Expense (STE) report within 15 calendar days. Receipts for expenses $10 or more must accompany the STE and be attached to an 8-1/2” x 11” sheet of paper (non per-diem). Reimbursements will not be authorized without proper receipts/documentation.  \nAbuse of this business travel expenses policy, including falsifying expense reports to reflect costs not incurred by the employee, can be grounds for disciplinary action, up to and including termination of employment.  \nTravel Procedures for Air, Train, Hotel, and Car Reservations  \nOnce the required Travel Authorization Request form (TAR) has been submitted and proper approval has been attained, it will be up to the employee or referring department to make the travel reservations. Approval for all reservations for a single trip should be requested at the same time. For example, for an overnight stay, the airline, hotel and car rental information (if necessary) should be requested simultaneously on one Travel Authorization Request form for the Vice President’s approval.  \nThe University will pay for transportation costs associated with travel booked through an approved travel agency, or through an online agency.  \nTravel arrangements reserved through the University will be paid by the University and booked through a Lincoln University approved travel agent. Currently, International Tours & Galaxsea Cruises and American Express Travel Services are Lincoln University approved travel agents.  \nEmployees choosing to book travel through online services should be aware that they may not have the benefit of using the services of a personal travel agent should they experience difficulty with their hotel, flight, logistical, travel, emergency, vehicle or other arrangemen","cbCaisHZv0BtLJC8","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaisHZv0BtLJC8","pdf",237243,"English","# Business Travel Expense Policy - General Guidelines\n## Travel authorization and approval requirements\n## Eligible expenses, reimbursements, and restrictions\n## Incident reporting and vehicle usage rules\n## Travel reservations and approved agencies\n## Travel advances and advance payments\n## Entertainment and mileage reimbursement","[{\"question\":\"How far in advance must a business travel request be submitted?\",\"answer\":\"All business travel requests should be submitted at least 15 business days in advance to allow approval and processing of necessary travel advances.\"},{\"question\":\"What expenses are reimbursable under the policy?\",\"answer\":\"Reimbursement is limited to business-related purposes submitted through the Travel Expense Statement (STE).
