Mileage Reimbursement vs. Rental Vehicle

As of January 1, 2010, the rate is $0.50 per mile. See the above link for limitations.

The number of miles traveled by an employee for state business may be determined using Google Maps or by point-to-point itemization. Point-to-point mileage may be documented using the employee's vehicle odometer reading or a readily available online mapping service. The itemization must be sufficiently detailed for the reimbursing agency to verify the number of miles.

Please note: Gasoline expenses or mileage may be reimbursed, but not both (not to exceed $50 per day).

Out-of-State Mileage

The Justification of Mileage vs Airfare for Out-of-State Travel form is required for mileage reimbursement. The estimated cost of airfare, mileage to the airport, and parking expenses must be listed to justify savings to the university and the State. The form must be completed before travel takes place.
