Volunteer expenses
From AFSWiki
As per the Volunteer Policy:
In the course of performing roles, volunteers may incur out-of-pocket expenses. Volunteers are entitled to seek reimbursement for budgeted and pre-approved expenses, which may include costs of:
- driving mileage
- Effective December 2008, the per-mile reimbursement rate is $0.45 per mile
- meals
- postage
- copying and duplicating
Area Teams have established bank accounts and procedures for reimbursing of-out-of pocket expenses. Volunteers should seek further advice and clarification from their Team Treasurer.
Volunteers in roles coordinated from the Regional Service Center receive reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses from Regional Service Centre staff. To receive reimbursement, such volunteers need to support their claims with receipts showing the expenditure incurred.
Please note that alcoholic beverages may not be submitted for reimbursement.
Eligible expenses may be reimbursed by filling out and submitting an expense reimbursement form (click here to download this Excel spreadsheet).
