Request Advance
1. Request advance
The initial request for an advance payment must be made using an AP Advance Request Form 
(525kb) which having completed you should pass to a departmental authorised signatory (such as the Departmental Administrator, or PI on a project), for consideration and authorisation.
For guidance refer to:
How to complete Advance 
(181kb)
2. Review request
The departmental authorised signatory should review the request and determine whether the conditions as outlined in Expenses and Benefits Guide are met. A request, which does not meet the conditions, must be rejected and returned to the individual.
3. Authorize and submit request
Where the request meets the conditions outlined in the Expenses and Benefits Guide, the departmental authorised signatory must sign the form as authorisation for the release of the advance.
The completed form should be submitted either:
- To the Cashiers Team for cash advance requests; or
- To the Payments Team for all other advances.
