Are travel expenses allowed on a Federal Award?

It is recommended that written sponsor approval be obtained for Travel. Travel expenses are allowed provided that:

  • There is documentation describing how the travel benefited the Award, if the specific travel was not included in the Award budget.

  • The length of the trip coincides with the travel objectives.

  • The trip takes place during the Award period.

  • Per diem amounts are within limits; follow UW guidelines for any excess amounts.

  • Lump sum amounts (lodging, meals, conferences) are broken out and documented to be within the per diem limitation.
