Expense claims process:

Complete the expenses claims form, entering one item per line and entering the cost in GBP. For purchases made in foreign currencies, the amount into GBP for the date the transaction was made, and enter this into the form.
If you have more than 9 items to process, complete an additional form. Please do not try to add extra lines to the form.
For each individual item, a receipt, a screenshot or invoice is required as proof of purchase. This will need to show details of the item, amount paid and the date of purchase.
Email the completed expenses claim forms and all receipts for items included to pgr-scholarships@sussex.ac.uk for processing.
Your expenses claim will be processed within a two week period. Expenses are paid to the bank account you have registered on SussexDirect.
