Cheryl,
Do you have a copy of a hotel receipt or document showing that the hotel
charges were billed to the Agency Lodging Card (ALC) ending in ?
Thank you.
That hotel expense was on the Agency Lodging card. I did not find any
additional receipts for this trip. I changed the hotel room to the
agency card, saved it and sent thru to you. Please let me know if I
need to do anything else on this trip. Thanks, Cheryl

Hi Eric,
I have reviewed the referenced trip submitted for Lt. Governor Michael
Stack for his travel to Philadelphia, PA 4/22/2015 to 4/23/2015. The
hotel receipt indicates the total charges were $284.82 and you submitted
$302.08. It appears that the state sales tax was added twice in the
$302.08 calculation. I deducted $17.26 from the $302.08 hotel charges.
I believe we spoke about the Hotel Occupancy Tax Exemption the other
day. Please note the following:

I have reviewed the above referenced trip submitted for Lt. Governor
Michael Stack for his travel to Quebec Canada 7/12/2015 to 7/14/2015.
The International Travel Authorization (STD-190) was not attached to the
expense report. I was able to obtain a copy of the approval from the
Governors office and Ive attached it to the expense report.
The costs of the two meal receipts attached to the expense report have
been entered as "Business Event Expense Meals". This receipt entry
was created due to the Executive Order 2015-01 [Executive Branch
Employee Gift Ban]. It appears that the meal expenses should be
submitted as "Costs on Behalf of Others Meals".
Please provide the names of the persons he incurred meal costs for the
$164.88 meal at Chez Boulay (receipt indicates 6 clients) and verify
that it was for a business meeting to discuss commonwealth business.
Also the names of each person he incurred meal costs for the $88.30 meal
at Au Petit Coin Brenton. The majority of the items listed on the meal
receipts were in French. I was able to find menus online for both Chez
Boulay and Au Petit Coin Brenton and I identified each item on the
receipts to the items on the menus (see attached). For future travel
this is to be completed prior to submitting expenses to our office for
review and processing.
I cannot tell from the meal receipts if the amounts are in Canadian
Dollars or US Dollars. If the amounts are in Canadian Dollars a
currency conversion will need to be completed. If Lt. Governor Stack
has his credit card statement showing the US dollar amounts for the two
meal receipts; it is an acceptable receipt for currency conversion
purposes. Or if there is no credit card statement then the acceptable
currency conversion is at the following link to OANDA. If the credit
card statement is available it can be scanned and emailed to me and Ill
convert the currency, you may blacken out the account # for security
purposes

Thank you for attaching the BCPO-3302 for the missing meal receipts.
You entered these meals as "Business Event Expense Meal". I changed
them to "Overnight Subsistence" as the expenses was for food while in
overnight travel. The "Business Event Expense Meal" entry is in
regards to the gift ban which these meals do not fall under that
category.
Thank you for entering the note that the Hotel was required to by the
conference to stay at the hotel. The lodging expenses are being
reimbursed. As we discuss, future travel will need justification when
the hotel rate is more than the maximum allowed GSA rate. For the Lt.
Governor the maximum rate is the GSA x 2.5.
I changed the BLDM expenses to Costs on Behalf of others and the travel
expense report has been approved for reimbursement.

Mr. Pettis,
The Hotel charges were $386.50 (+taxes) per night. The maximum hotel
charge while lodging in Indianapolis IN is $245 per night ($98 GSA
maximum x 2.5 times for the agency head). The justification entered on
the expense report indicates the hotel was the location of the
Conference.
When the conference does not have an official hotel, the commonwealth
traveler is required to obtain a property within reasonable proximity to
the conference at or below the maximum allowed rate, using preferred
properties when possible. Additional transportation cost, if not staying
at the conference headquarters, should be considered in the evaluation.

Mr. Pettis,
I have reviewed the above referenced trip submitted for Lt. Governor
Michael Stack for his travel to Indianapolis, IN, 7/7/2015 to 7/11/2015.
In order to process the travel expense report an Out-of-State Travel
exception request, Form STD-189, must be approved by the Governors
Office and emailed to me to attach to the expense report. The following
link is to the Out-of-State Travel Exception Request found on travel
operations web page.
When I process the expense report I will change the BLDMs to Cost on
Behalf of others.
The $109.87 meal receipt at the Tavern on South only indicates two three
course meals at $42 each. I found the attached menu on line that lists
what is included in the $42 three course meals. For future travel
itemized receipt are needed for all meal expenses.

I have reviewed the above referenced travel expense report submitted for
Lieutenant Governor Stack for a $240 ticket at Pocono Raceway 8/23/2015.
The costs of attending events are not reimbursable through a travel

I have reduced the $240 charge from the expense report and processed for
$0 reimbursement. Ive attached a copy of the receipt should you not
have a copy to submit through HR.

If the costs are not exact, call the restaurant and ask if their menu
prices have changed since the October 2015 indicated on the menus.
Note, the state sales tax for Philadelphia is 7%.

Eric,
For trip 525386661 we cannot accept the BCPO-3302 form for the $89.10
meal cost. We need to know what food items were purchased and their
costs. I located the Palm Restaurants menus and Ive attached them to
this reply. You can circle the menu items purchased and email the menu
back to me, we will accept this as the itemized portion of the receipt
and form for the $89.10.

Eric,
I have reviewed the referenced trip submitted for the Lt. Governor for
his travel to Wilkes-Barre, PA 12/21/2015. A $423.49
Breakfast/Lunch/Dinner (BLDM) meeting meal expense has been submitted
for reimbursement. The meal receipt indicates that the Lt. Governor
incurred meals for three additional persons. Since he is incurring the
meal expense for others the entry is to be "Cost on Behalf of Others
Meal" Before I approve the expense for reimbursement I will correct the
entry.
Yes it was.

since I know there is some leeway for the Lt. Governor with these types
of things. Let me know if you need anything else.

Hi Eric,
I have reviewed the referenced trip submitted for Lt. Governor Michael
Stack for his travel to Philadelphia, PA 2/16/2016 to 2/18/2016. The
$20 meal expense submitted for breakfast on 2/18/2016 is not itemized.
An itemized receipt is needed for reimbursement of the meal expense.
Hi Eric,

Eric,
The STD-189 attached yesterday to the Lt. Governors trip is from 2015.
This will need removed and attach the approved STD-189 . Anthony
Costa prepares and receives the STD-189 approvals from the Governors
resource account , you will need to contact Anthony to provide the
approval.
Thank you,

Eric,
The attached unapproved STD-189 for Lt. Governor Michael Stack cannot be
processed. This form was filled out after travel with incorrect dates
and changes to estimated costs. We previously discussed, Anthony Costa
prepares and receives the STD-189 approvals from the Governors resource
account , which confirms Paula Wilcoxs response in April when the
attached new STD-189 was sent to her.
You will need to go into the trip, remove the unapproved STD-189, and
obtain the approved STD-189 from Anthony Costa and attach to the trip.
This is required to proceed in the reimbursement audit process.
The second item to allow for continued processing is the two meals
listed below, which included the Lt. Governor, Dylan McGarry and Trp
Rob Brown and does not meet the MD230.1 guidelines for both BLDM or
incurring expenses. The Lt. Governor would only qualify for his portion.
Below are your options:
1. Itemize the receipt for what the Lt. Governor consumed and
reattach the receipt, changing the expense type from BLDM to overnight
subsistence.
2. Remove the BLDM expenses in the amounts of $180.43 and $505.20.
Then, request an Exception to Travel Policy (previously discussed and
template sent) for the Lt. Governor , and if approved, an adjustment
payment would be done.
3. Request the Exception approval now, further delaying processing
of the trip, but this would allow for one reimbursement.
Thank you,

Eric,
I was going to review the above referenced trip submitted for the Lt.
Governor for his travel to Philadelphia, PA 3/25/2016 3/26/2016. A
Hotel receipt for the $506.71 charges needs attached to the travel
expense report. The distance traveled also needs to be entered in the
mileage section of the expense report.
Please advise when the above has been completed so that I can continue
processing the expense report.

The STD-194 form you attached to the expense report is the wrong form.
Form STD-189 Out of State Travel Exception Request that has governors
office approval, is the form that needs to be attached to the expense
report.

Hi Eric,
The subject trip has been audited and the below listed issues will
require your correction/additional documentation/attention:
2. The $339.00 daily room rate for the Scottsdale Marriott is more
than the 2.5 times the GSA rate. The GSA rate for Scottsdale AZ is $118
x 2.5 for a maximum of $295.00 per night. Please provide justification
as to why this hotel was booked.
Note, Out of state travel is not exempt from the occupancy tax.
Therefore the $22.54 tax is reimbursable ($22.54 x 4 = $90.16).
