Travel Reimbursements: Canadians
|
Canadians can enter the US without the immigration paperwork required of visitors from other countries. They may come to IU without a passport, visa or I-94 departure card.
If a department plans on bringing a Canadian to IU and wants to reimburse travel expenses, they should advise the visitor to bring their Canadian passport or some other proof of citizenship. The department should attach a copy of the passport ID page to the disbursement voucher.
If the Canadian visitor does have an I-94 departure card, the department should attach a copy to the travel payment.
If a department wants to reimburse travel expenses for more than 9 days, the Canadian visitor must obtain a B-1 or WB status when entering the US. For more information on how to obtain this status, contact the Office of International Services on the Bloomington campus or the Office of International Affairs on the Indianapolis campus. Once the visitor obtains either visa status, they will need to submit the required documentation for travel payment request listed on the Travel Reimbursements: B-1/WB webpage.
Honoraria may be paid to Canadian visitors under most circumstances.
