How to complete expense reports
This document is designed to help you understand how to complete your expense report and direct deposit form. The direct deposit form only needs to be completed and submitted once you submit your expense report.
Before you begin
- Please make sure you have all of your corresponding receipts for your expense report. Each line item on your expense report needs to have a corresponding receipt, except for kilometers and per diem meals.
- Kilometers – staff will be reimbursed for travel expenses based on the number of kilometers traveled and a rate of 54.82 cents
- Per diem meals – the Sask DLC reimburses staff based on a daily allowance for meals (Breakfast $10.0, Lunch $18.00, Dinner $23.00). For example, if an employee has a $12.00 lunch, they can claim $18.00 per diem on their expense report under Column K, likewise, if an employee spends $40 on meals throughout the day they can indicate a per diem of $51.00 in column M. The meal rates include reimbursement for GST and gratuities.
Expense reports can be submitted to corpfinance@saskdlc.ca once the employee's supervisor has approved and dated the report.
