NALP Reimbursement form

Post by Anonymous User » Sat Aug 27, 2016 2:30 pm

So I'm doing the form; no where does it say ''attach receipts'' or anything like that. Seems to be on the honor system? I saved all my receipts, but am I supposed to provide them to the firm along with the NALP form completed?

I took pictures of the receipts and emailed the receipts as PDFs along with the NALP form. Not sure if others do it differently but it's worked for me so far!

I turned in my first reimbursement form earlier today. For the receipts, I decided it would be easier to just send a copy of my credit card statement showing relevant charges with the sensitive info cropped out, rather than sending three different receipts. (Gas, parking, and breakfast)

I later opened the sent email and noticed that even though I cropped out my account info at the top and some charges for another firm at the bottom, I neglected to crop out the column to the right that showed a running total of charges, my last payment, and current balance.

How bad is that going to look? "Well, we wanted to hire this person, but it appears that they cannot even successfully crop semi-sensitive information from a receipt."

Am I worried about nothing?

Almost every firm I did callback with wanted original receipts mailed to them--specified in callback scheduling email. Actually, I'm pretty sure NALP form says to mail to approp. firm contact w/ receipts. Don't have it on hand to check

And since you have to do two separate forms for two separate cities, if you have expense applicable to firms in both (i.e. airport long term parking), I think you just send orig. to one and copy to other with note that orig. w/ Firm A.

They have to be originals? I wasn't given any info pertaining to receipts - Just handed me a form and said I could return it with receipts or use the online form. I just figured it was easier to email a credit card statement with everything on it. My gas, parking, and meal were only around $60 total.
