Payment does not require any action on the part of the customer or travel arranger.

As a general rule it is expected that properly completed reimbursement requests will be processed within ten (10) days after receipt of the request. The twenty (20) day cumulative time period, including the ten (10) days recommended for submission of properly completed and approved forms,  is designed to meet the payment period for the AMEX Corporate Card (i.e. in general, 45 days from the ending date of the statement). The University does not reimburse for late fees so pay your credit card bill on time to avoid additional charges. Sign up for direct deposit to ensure that you are receiving your reimbursements as quickly as possible.

For information on the status of your reimbursements, you can check BEN Financials or click on My Reimbursements on the U@PENN site. Non-employees should consult the TAC holder, higher level approver or travel arranger for payment status.
