These instructions are to be used for travel within the U.S. For travel internationally (outside of the United States), see Per Diem (International).

This is a brand-new type of form! Please review how to Download & Submit An Expense Submission Form before completing this form.


A Per Diem is a daily allowance for meals and incidentals a field worker can use when traveling for their Reliant role for a period of 5 or more days. 

Some examples of when you might want to request a Per Diem include: 

  • MTD Trips
  • Conferences
  • Mission Trips

Incidentals

Incidentals are small expenses related to travel that may be difficult to track and itemize on a reimbursement form. These include:

  • Tips
  • Public Transportation
  • Laundry


Spouse and children's costs are also eligible for Per Diem. A spouse's Per Diem may be taxable and recovered through an Expense Recovery Bonus (ERB) if the spouse is not a Reliant field worker or is not serving in a ministry role on the trip. Children's Per Diem costs are taxable and recovered through an ERB.

Associate field workers are eligible for per diem for themselves during the active conduct of ministry, but they are not eligible for per diem for a spouse or children.

General Per Diem Rate

Reliant requests that a field worker only requests the amount of Per Diem necessary for their actual meal and incidental expenses.

For Reliant field workers traveling 5 days or longer (within the US), the Per Diem rates are as follows. 


MealsIncidentals
Reliant Field Worker Only$49 per day$10 per day
Reliant Field Worker + Spouse$89 per day$20 per day
Children$35 per day, per child

$10 per day, per child

Additional Approvals

Please use the designated box on the Per Diem form to confirm that you have discussed the trip with your supervisor and that they approve of the trip. 

If the expense is for a project fund, please share the form with an authorized signer of the fund and ask them to add approval before submitting the form to the Reliant reimbursement team.

The Reimbursements Team may notify the program team or request further approval from a Reliant Central Program Team Lead. This means that your liaison or another member of the program team may reach out to you or your supervisor for additional details, update a job description, or request another form such as the Travel Notification Procedure

Submission & Processing

  • Please submit a separate per diem form for each month. However, if your date range only crosses into a second month by less than 5 days it can be entered on the same form.
  • We can only pay Per Diem up to a maximum of 30 days before the first day of use.
