 1 Who it was from. Most receipts show this. Example "Walmart" or Amazon. An email from a seller should show their email address, etc...
2. Whom it is for, as in which child or children. For books and miscellaneous supplies this can be written on the receipt. For commonwealths or classes, this should be part of the invoice.
3. What is was for. (Even for internet companies, because they may provide phone and other services.)
4. Proof that they received the money. Sometimes you will need a signed receipt as with music lessons, unless the receipt they provide is clear enough.
5. Date or dates it is for, so we are not paying for  something outside of our school year. (Some people accidentally submit receipts that are too old.)

We should not make invoices for sellers, unless we get them signed by that seller, and have their contact information on it, such as telephone number or email address. 

You may choose any of the courses on the OpenEd offerings and LEMI will reimburse you up to the price of the amount of reimbursements you have left.

 You will be reimbursed in 3 payments. A few weeks after the deadlines.
  All students can receive up to $566 in reimbursements in each reimbursement period. You will not be reimbursed until receipts and the reimbursement form turned in and are current in your weekly logs.
$566 in receipts turned in before November 1st.
$566 in receipts if turned in before February 1st.
$566 in receipts if turned in by April 30th.  

 No, Your receipts must be turned in and shown as "Paid" prior to reimbursement.  If LEMI is to purchase a class for you that has to be arranged before the purchase is made. 

 No, You may turn all receipts in any time until the deadline of March 30th.  For example, if you wait and do not turn in any receipts until you turn in $1700 in receipts on March 29th, and have $1700 amount to be reimbursed.  You will be reimbursed the $1700 amount some time in April as long as your receipts are all good and valid.

 Yes. You can turn them in any time before March 30th, and we will wait to reimburse until the total meets or exceeds $100 to send a check. 
And please only submit up to 3 reimbursement forms per child.
