This interactive module will take you through the process of locating and completing frequently used financial forms relevant to your graduate
assistantship position.
Active clickable links will move you through the module. Return links are included to bring you back through the module to previous pages.
Why is this information important to you? 1. It is your obligation to complete these forms as part of your assistantship job
responsibilities. 2. Commonwealth’s Prompt Pay act states that you have 30 days from the receipt of
proper paperwork to complete the processing of reimbursements – this is the law – knowing how to do this and where the forms are helps to do it on time.
3. You are dealing with someone else’s money, sometimes your own, and people like to have it as soon as possible!
4. The accounts you work with total over $100,000. Knowing how to complete these forms ensures the money comes from the correct accounts and gets into the right hands in a timely manner.
5. Again, it’s your job!
