Faculty, research associates and students generally use research funds for travel, and the principal investigator needs to approve a travel budget. Travelers typically make their own travel arrangements and pay either by cash advance or post-trip reimbursement. The office has a Travel and Entertainment credit card that can also be used to book a trip when needed.
Contact phyadmin@syr.edu if a university credit card is preferred for travel reservation payment. Request(s) need to be sent via email with supervisor approval to phyadmin@syr.edu. The traveler must complete a travel voucher or employee expense reimbursement request for any expenditures that are approved and could not be booked or reserved in advance.

Getting the Paperwork Done
Human Resources –
- At HR, complete an I-9 form, which generates an SU ID#. Note: students can complete an I-9 at Student Employment (210 Steele Hall); all others must go to Human Resources (Skytop Office Building, Rm 101).
- Once you have the I-9 completed, get your ID card at the ID Card Office (202 Steele Hall).
- Inform office staff that you have completed your I-9 and provide your SUID number.
- When your ID shows up in the system, you can be put on payroll by having an IJan completed by an office staff member.
- Once the IJan is approved, you can get your netid – to create and activate see http://its.syr.edu/newtosu/applied/getnetid.html
- If you will be working in the Physics Building evenings (past class times) and weekends, you will need to contact Lou Buda (buda@phy.syr.edu) - please tell him your rank (research associate, faculty, sutdent, etc.) and give him your SUID number. He will see that you are added to the list for "card swipe entry" into the building when it is locked. The only door with card swipe access is the quad side east entrance.
