This checklist is provided as guidance and is subject to change by CDOT. CDOT shall provide notice of any such changes to Grantee. All items may not apply to your particular entity.

The Grantee is responsible for ensuring that the backup matches the invoice and is eligible for reimbursement. ✓ The CDOT grant manager will review and determine if the Grantee expenses are eligible for reimbursement. ✓ If the Grantee pays the Subgrantee a discounted amount, the full amount cannot be reimbursed to the Grantee. The Grantee will only be reimbursed up to the actual amount paid to the Grantee's Subgrantee. ✓ Please ensure that all payment vouchers include some notation of when it was paid or approved for payment. ✓ Invoice(s) should match the check amount. An additional explanation and documentation is required for any variances. ✓ Estimates, statements and emails are not acceptable in lieu of an invoice copy. ➢ Copies of checks (All Tiers) ✓ All of the following are acceptable - copies of checks, check registers, approved accounting system generated expenditure ledgers showing the amount paid, the check number or electronic funds transfer ( "EFT ") and the date paid. ✓ CDOT needs to ensure that expenditures incurred by the Grantee have been paid by the Grantee before CDOT is invoiced by the Grantee.
