NON-EMPLOYEE TRAVEL INFORMATION
Payment of travel for non-employees must be approved in advance, and should take into account funding availability and the business necessity of paying such travel.

1) Students authorized to travel for participation in academic programs and sanctioned student events, to include athletic and recruiting events. All students must submit a completed Professional Travel Authorization form along with their travel expense statement.
2) Individuals contracted to perform a service for the institution where the contract provides for travel expense reimbursement.
3) Job applicant travel associated with an interview.
4) Official guests providing a direct benefit to UNG by collaborating, presenting, or participating in academic, research, or conference activities.
Payments of non-employee travel are subject to the allowable limits. You may find more information on travel regulations here.
NON-EMPLOYEE TRAVEL REIMBURSEMENT PROCESS:
1) Ask the non-employee to complete the UNG Travel Expense Statement and the W-9 form.
2) If it is a student, they are required to also fill out the Professional Travel Authorization form.
3) After the appropriate signatures are obtained, submit the Travel Expense Statement, W-9 form, Professional Travel Authorization form (for students only), and all original receipts to Melissa Proctor in the Comptroller's Office for payment.
