ORISE RESEARCH PARTICIPATION AT THE CDC
TRAVEL AUTHORIZATION/RESERVATION (TAR)

Instructions: Please complete all spaces on the attached forms to avoid delays in the processing of your travel request. If a question is not applicable, put N/A. AIRFARE
If you request that our travel office make airline reservations for you, please list times and dates that you would like to travel. The travel office will e-mail you an itinerary based on your requests (air, rental car, etc.) for your approval.
The travel office will NOT purchase your ticket until they have received your approval via e-mail. It is your responsibility to reply to our travel office and give them your purchase approval. Once the travel office receives approval, they will purchase the ticket and send you an e-ticket confirmation via e-mail. Airline tickets are placed on the ORISE credit card, so you are not responsible for that charge. Please respond promptly to e-mails from the travel office to ensure the best prices for airline ticket purchase. HOTEL If you would like for our travel office to make hotel reservations, please check yes on your TAR. Your credit card number and expiration date are required in order to guarantee your room. You may e-mail this information to travelos@orau.gov or call (865) 241-3109. You will be responsible for the hotel charges and must submit your original receipt with your Travel Expense Statement (TES) to obtain reimbursement. Please contact the program specialist or the travel office prior to travel to check the current lodging and per diem rates applicable to the city you are traveling. RENTAL CARS Our travel office will make rental car reservations for you if you check yes on the TAR. You pay for rental car charges and submit original receipt with your TES to obtain reimbursement. Insurance on rental vehicles is NOT reimbursable.
Upon completion of the TAR, please have your CDC coordinator/mentor approve the travel and fax to the number listed below. Your travel request will NOT be processed without the proper approvals.
After we receive your approved TAR, you will be mailed a Travel Authorization Letter confirming the approval and a TES to claim your travel expenses. The TES should be submitted within 5 business days of your return from travel.
