Recently, there has been some confusion concerning arrival and departure dates using Method 2 Reimbursement and Meal and Incidental Expense (M&IE) Per Diem breakdowns. The confusion stems from the U.S. General Services Administration’s (GSA) website M&IE breakdown and current campus practices. What is important to note is that although GSA provides a breakdown that some state and federal agencies may use for their purposes, our campus is bound by travel policy set by the New York State Office of the State Comptroller (OSC). The OSC Travel Manual clearly states that only breakfast and/or dinner can be claimed by the traveler based upon departure and return times.
If you have any question concerning this policy, please contact our office at ext. 4117.
