Weekly CREATE Bulletin

You Don’t Need the Luck of the Irish to Get Your Reimbursement.

You’ve submitted your application. You’ve been approved. You’ve completed your course. Now it’s time to submit your final report so you can receive your reimbursement and close our your successful CREATE grant. Yes, after all your hard work, there’s still more to do! Unless you submit all required documentation, you will hold up or lose your reimbursement. Let’s make sure that doesn’t happen! Remember the following items are required to receive your reimbursement:

  • Reimbursement Request Form
  • Participant Data Forms
  • Student Attestation Form (if applicable)
  • Out of State Student Attestation Form (if applicable)
  • College Expenditure Form (if applicable)
  • Receipts for all expenses 
  • Grades
  • National Registry Certification copy (if applicable)
  • Course Evaluation
  • Travel Reimbursement Form (if applicable)

Some of the most common reasons for not receiving your reimbursement are: missing receipts, overdue course balance, expense completed prior to award approval, ineligible participants, late or missed report dates, not passing a course within allotted timeframe, food expenses, not following grant guidelines. Don’t let this happen to your organization!

Thank you for all you do for all our Colorado communities! We are here to support you, so please do not hesitate to contact us with questions or concerns.
