There are some brief updates to three sponsored policies and an update to the Travel and Reimbursement Guidance:
- Appendix G: Requirements for Travel Expenses Charged to Federal Awards or Cost Share Funds: The recent update edited language to provide additional clarification and incorporated travel guidance from the Sponsored Expenditure Guidelines.
- Cost Transfer Policy Resources: Several resource documents were updated to incorporate references to the new GL-PCR tool. One FAQ was added regarding how the GL-PCR adjustments appear on the Transaction Listing (TL).
- Stipends on Sponsored Awards: As part of routine review of policies, this guidance was reviewed and edited for further clarification.
- Travel and Reimbursement Guidance effective October 29, 2021- This applies to Harvard faculty, students, postdocs, and staff only for business expense reimbursements. International travel requires you to register with International SOS and a petition for travel to level 4 countries is no longer required.
