UCP COVID-19 Travel Request Form

Please fill out the UCP COVID-19 Travel Request Form (a Word doc) first before you fill out this form.

Domestic Travel: UCAR employees can travel domestically to meetings and conferences, but must obtain approval first from their Lab/Program/Center/Office (L/P/C/O) level. UCP has created the attached UCP COVID-19 Travel Request form that all UCP|CPAESS employees must complete and have approved before a UCAR Travel Request can be approved. Please follow the steps below to insure a smooth process:

1) Complete the above UCP Covid-19 Travel Request Form and send it to your CPAESS supervisor for signatures. Once your supervisor has signed the form, forward it to Michelle McCambridge (mmccamb@ucar.edu) and she will obtain the Director's signature. If your supervisor is Hanne Mauriello, please fill out the form and return it to Michelle McCambridge (mmccamb@ucar.edu) and she will get the appropriate signatures.  If you are a Postdoc, please fill out the form and return it to Kendra Greb (kgreb@ucar.edu) for signatures.

2) Next submit the CPAESS Employee Travel Request Form below.

International and/or Field Work Travel: All international and/or field work travel requests require a more in-depth approval process that includes a review by UCAR's Health and Environmental Safety Services team and approval by UCAR President Tony Busalacchi. Please contact your supervisor and Michelle McCambridge (mmccamb@ucar.edu) if you are planning any trips of this sort. The entire approval process can take 2-4 weeks to complete, and we cannot purchase airline tickets until approval has been obtained. Please give us as much lead time as possible to help you navigate the process. More information can be found here: https://sundog.ucar.edu/Interact/Pages/Content/Document.aspx?id=3534

Personal Car: If you use your personal car to get to the airport, you can be reimbursed according to the government mileage reimbursement rate if you submit mileage with your receipts. If you choose to use your personal car for travel when the time/distance make air travel unnecessary, you must contact CPAESS to confirm that your plans comply with UCAR policy. There are fairly strict guidelines pertaining to use of slower means of transportation.

Rental Car

Rental Cars: UCAR has preferred rate agreements with Hertz, Avis, Budget, Enterprise and National car rentals. CPAESS will reserve these for you and they will be direct-billed. Direct billing is only available for domestic car rentals.

Notes:

  1. If UCAR books your travel and you use one of the rental agencies listed above, you are automatically covered by UCAR insurance for all domestic car rentals. UCAR cannot reimburse any additional insurance you accept from the rental agency. If you would like a copy of UCAR's current insurance card, please let us know and we will send the information to you.
  2. If you are using a preferred agency rental car during personal time during your trip, charges will be prorated and the cost of any personal use will be deducted from your total reimbursement when your voucher is processed.
  3. UCAR can reimburse fuel expenses for rental cars. Please keep your receipts.
II. Lodging

Travelers must make their own hotel reservations and submit an itemized hotel bill for reimbursement.  You will, however, be reimbursed the actual cost of your hotel room. Please let us know if you will be staying with friends or relatives rather than in a hotel.

III. Registration

IV. Travel Advance

If you need an advance, the request must be received at least two (2) weeks prior to travel. A reasonable advance amount is usually the estimate of hotel expenses and per diem. Your CPAESS contact can suggest an amount. If your reimbursement expenses are less than the amount of the advance, you must pay back the overpayment and submit all receipts to reconcile the advance funds.

V. Reimbursement

Please submit all receipts as soon as you return from travel. All travel should be reconciled within two (2) weeks of your return. Once CPAESS receives your receipts, a voucher will be completed and sent to you by e-mail for your review, certification, dating and e-mail scan return.

If you are not set up for direct deposit, please enter the address where check should be sent.
