The mileage reimbursement rate for travel by state-owned or personal vehicles has been updated, according to the State Accounting Office. For travel after Jan. 1, employees will be reimbursed for business miles traveled at $0.51 per mile when it is determined that a personal vehicle is the most advantageous form of travel. If a personal motor vehicle is not determined to be the most advantageous form of travel, but it is used, the employee will be reimbursed for business miles traveled at the new rate of $0.19 per mile.
The travel expense statement has been modified to reflect these changes. The form is available at https://busfin1.busfin.uga.edu/accounts_payable/travel_expense_login.cfm.
