Submitting US Expenses for Reimbursement

Before incurring any business expenses, please ensure that expense reimbursements are authorized by your supervisor and your TCWGlobal Account Manager. If so, follow the easy instructions below to be reimbursed!

 

*This article is updated as of January 2025 with an enhanced expense form. Please discontinue use of the prior form while following this process.

Step 1: Complete the US Expense Form

  • Use the US Expense Form link to complete your expense report. Complete all required fields and remember that itemized receipts with a matching dollar amount are required for all expenses.
  • If you are claiming mileage on your form, please include a screenshot of the route you took that will show the mileage (i.e. from Google or Apple maps).
  • Additionally, ensure to list the correct work email address of your supervisor, who will be responsible for approving your expense prior to you being reimburse
  • Note, if you need to submit more than 10 items, you will complete multiple forms.

Step 2: Submit Your Expense for Approval :

  • Once the US expense form is filled out, including all necessary receipts and/or other documentation, click submit!
  • The submission will route via email to your supervisor, yourself, and TCWGlobal. The email notification will include instructions for your manager to review/approve the expense.

Step 3: Get paid!

Once your expense is approved by your supervisor, TCWGlobal will process for payment on an upcoming check.

Tips to Ensure Timely and Accurate Expense Processing:

We want you to get paid timely! Here are tips to help ensure that happens 😊:

  • Only incur expenses if you are approved to do so – if unsure, please check with your supervisor first.
  • Expenses should be submitted/approved by Mondays at 2:00 pm PST. The sooner you submit, the quicker your supervisor may review.
  • Attach all receipts and/or documentation to the Expense Form link provided in step 1. TCWGlobal cannot open files shared via Google Drive due to digital privacy restrictions.
  • Make sure that your Expense Report is accurately completed and that all receipts are included – missing or inaccurate information will delay approval and processing
