Travel & Miscellaneous Expense Authorization (TMEA) Form
UWM Procurement will respond to any inquiries related to the completion of the TMEA Form and how the form is used in the E-Reimbursement process.
The TMEA needs to be completed PRIOR to any Travel scheduled. The TMEA is a pre-authorization to travel and to ensure funding is available. Once approved, Travel can be scheduled. When travel is complete an Expense Report should be submitted before 90 days pass per IRS Regulations. The TMEA must be attached to the expense report.
