Hello,
To ensure proper attestation by the Claimant and Approver, Advances and Expense reports must include the reference number and the amount on top of all printed pages. If this information is missing, Travel Desk will return these documents to the Financial Services Team (FST) or the Requestor when there is no FST.
If you are involved with the financial administration of Tri-Agency grants (CIHR, NSERC, SSHRC and CRC), please read the message below.
