On September 1st, the mileage reimbursement rate for employees using their personal vehicles for University travel will be reduced. The current IRS rate of 53.5 cents per mile will be reduced to 25 cents per mile, which represents the cost to operate a University-owned vehicle. Suggested alternatives for travel include using CCFL’s state car, renting from UNL Transportation Services, or using Enterprise Rent-A-Car (utilizing the Big Ten Contract that includes Collision Damage Waiver and Supplemental Liability Protection).

There are also new guidelines regarding meals/snacks/drinks reimbursements. Meal receipts will NOT be reimbursed whenever meals are provided by a lodging facility, conference, meeting, official function, or event. Snacks/drinks purchased between meals are considered personal maintenance expenses and are NOT reimbursable. September 1st is also the effective date for these changes.

If you have any questions on what may or may not be reimbursable, feel free to contact Chris, Cassie, or Stacie.
