Research Travel Cancellations

The School is following Tri-Council guidelines for reimbursing faculty for travel costs related to cancelled travel plans for School/University funded research accounts. Reimbursement of non-refundable travel fees for School sourced research funds is acceptable. See the Tri-Council memo for more information: https://cihr-irsc.gc.ca/e/51898.html

If you are in the position where you have submitted a claim for expenses paid that ended up getting reimbursed due to a cancellation, you are ethically obliged to reimburse the University of Alberta. Please contact your DA or the Finance unit if you need to submit reimbursement.

Other Expense Claims

The regular process for submitting and approving expense claims has not changed.

Please refer to the School's year-end timelines and cut-off dates.
