Please note that you will not be able to fill in any fields on this form. A version of this
document in which you can fill in can be obtained by contacting the
LIP coordinator
.
All items being donated or paid for should be included in the project scope in order to be
considered in the total eligible costs. Forms to assist you in preparing the documentation
are attached (You are not restricted to using only these forms so long as whatever
documentation you provide contains the same necessary information).

Expenses: Costs resulting in actual expenditure are eligible for reimbursement.

A.

For Contracted Labor: Documentation = An invoice marked "paid" which
includes the work date and work description (your contractor should be able to
provide this). If the contractor has done work for multiple sites, denote on the
invoice what portion is applicable to LIP.

B.

For Supplies/Equipment Maintenance: Documentation = A copy of the receipt
with the item and the date (ex: what you would get from the store register). If the
supplies are for multiple sites or the receipt contains several items, denote on the
receipt what portion is applicable to LIP.

C.

Salary, wages, and benefits paid to hired workers: Documentation can vary
depending on how your system is set up. Possible examples include a copy of the
payroll ledger with the applicable payment/worker highlighted, canceled checks,
etc. If the worker is responsible for multiple projects, you can denote in some way
what proportion of the total is applicable to LIP, or attach a timesheet w/project
area & dates if this is how they track it.
