  3. Original receipts showing proof of payment are always required for reimbursement. NOTE: Invoices are not considered receipts. We need something that actually shows the item was paid for.

  4. If you have lost the original receipt, or do not have proof of payment, you must submit a copy of your bank statement showing the payment and the description in the itemized column, or submit an original cancelled check. (All personal information should be whited out).

  5. For the following categories, you must provide:

    Airfare: Receipt or invoice/itinerary showing payment AND ticket number (this is not the same as a confirmation number). Ticket numbers are 10-16 digit numeric codes. Without the ticket number your reimbursement cannot be processed. (Only Jet Blue does not provide ticket numbers).
