Please see below for updates and reminders from the Accounts Payable, Travel, and Expenses department for employees who travel for university business.

New Mileage Reimbursement Rate
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has increased the 2024 standard mileage rate for the business use of an automobile to 67 cents a mile, an increase of 1.5 cents per mile from 2023. 

All mileage reimbursement requests from employees for mileage incurred on or after January 1, 2024, will be processed using the 67 cent rate.

Travel Advance Reminders
All travel advance requests must be submitted through a Spend Authorization at least two weeks before the travel date. 

After returning from a business trip, it is important to follow these guidelines:

  • Submit an Expense Report created from the original Spend Authorization within 15 business days of the trip's end date.
  • Attach all eligible travel expense documents to the Expense Report
    • Employees traveling with a group must also attach a signed Team Roster to the Expense Report to verify fund disbursement
