Reimbursement Request

Individuals may apply for reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenditures incurred for legitimate purposes during the course of their work for the Town. It is advisable to seek preapproval from the Department Head responsible for the account from which reimbursement will be paid.

All original receipts should accompany the submission. Note that as a tax-exempt organization the Town of Washington will not reimburse MA Sales Tax except in extraordinary circumstances where it cannot otherwise be avoided and with the approval of the Select Board. You should contact the Accountant to to get a copy of the Town's tax exempt certificate or to find out if there is already a vendor with whom the Town has an account where items can be purchased.

Requests for reimbursement will not be approved if submitted more than three months after the original purchase nor for costs incurred in a previous fiscal year.

The Request for Reimbursement form is available as either a PDF or an Excel template.
