What if I'm waiting on UCRF or UCPEA funding for the ETIF or TA?

  1. When making the booking, enter your department FRS account in the required FRS account field.
  2. If we email you about your booking, please email us back that you're waiting on funding. If the funding is going to be received within the next 7-10 days, just wait and submit the ETIF or TA once you get your award letter.
  3. If the award funding will be delayed more than 10 days, we prefer that you submit the ETIF or TA with the department FRS account(s).
    • Once the award letter is received, you can fax a copy of the ETIF or TA and the award letter to 486-2089 and write "funding revised" across the paper before faxing it.
    • We will then do a JV for you here in the Travel Office.
    • If you prefer, you can send the JV request to Randy Moore, in Accounting, for processing.
