OPERATING PRINCIPLES
Employees seeking approval for payment of relocation will work with UM Payroll - Human Resources for authorized reimbursement. Specific procedures on how to process costs associated with relocating an employee’s household goods and personal effects are handled through emailing UM Payroll askpayrollacct@mso.umt.edu.
Reimbursement requests for relocation expenses will no longer be processed through GrizMart and Accounts Payable. Rather than issuing payments as a reimbursement, relocation payments will now be processed as an allowance through payroll with appropriate taxation. Please email requests or inquiries regarding relocation to askpayrollacct@mso.umt.edu. A new version of the relocation form is available at /business-services/employees/services/accounts-payable/relocation-allowance-form.pdf . Since relocation payments will be processed as allowances, it is no longer necessary to attach receipts with your form.
A Relocation Authorization Form authorized by the appropriate Executive Officer or designee must be submitted to UM Payroll.
UM Payroll - Human Resources will be responsible for tax withholding and reporting.
