An explanation for each expense submitted, including:

  • Description of the expense
  • Whom the item is for:
    • First and last names of the people involved
    • The ministry relationship of the person(s) to the field staff.

Otherwise, the use of actual first and last names is required, if the relationship is not uniform with all members of the group.

Itemized original receipts and other appropriate substantiating documents (if applicable) must be submitted with the form.
