Payment Request Procedures
We normally only cut checks once a week on Thursdays, so you must have your vouchers into the Diocesan office by Wednesday afternoons.

For Department Heads, Committee or Event Chairpersons, Staff, and others who need to get a bill paid to a third party vendor or individual for services rendered, please complete a Diocese of South Carolina Payment Voucher Form.

If you need to reimburse yourself or others for expenses incurred through diocesan travel, or purchases made for an event, program, or the office, please complete an Expense Reimbursement Claim Form. It is recommended that Expense Reimbursement Forms be submitted within a 30-day time frame, because no expenses over 60 days old from the date of occurrence will be reimbursed (diocesan policy).

Mileage Reimbursement
The diocese uses the allowable IRS mileage reimbursement rate for miles driven by its employees, which, effective July 1, 2008, is 58.5 cents per mile. Churches are encouraged to do the same.

Supply Clergy
The standard diocesan rate for visiting supply clergy is $150 for one service and $200 for two services. This does not include mileage which should also be reimbursed at the rate of 50.5 cents per mile (58.5 cents per mile effective July 1, 2008.)
