Introduction<\/h3>\n

The Time & Effort Reporting at the University has changed from a paper form (125B) to an electronic system. You should use the steps and guidance in this document to certify your Time & Effort report, if applicable.<\/p>\n

Only employees that, received payments from federal sources, need to comply with the T&E reporting requirement. Federal sources should be understood as payments from direct federal funds, cost shared funds, committed effort and extra service (additional compensations), that emanates from federally funded projects.<\/p>\n

The federal regulation establishes that budget estimates alone do not qualify as support for charges on federal awards (see \u00a7200.430 Compensation personal services<\/a>). The UPR established a two-step verification process where administrative personnel verify the correctness of the T&E, when compared to budget estimates and award documents, and the final certification of the person that did the work. Therefore, employees certifying T&E reports should assure that the certified effort report is accurate and represents the actual work performed by the employee.<\/p>\n
