Summary

Instructions for the completion of a Travel Request Form for out of state travel.

Body

Travel Request Form - Dynamic Forms Instructions 

The Travel Request Form is used for travel outside the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. This form is not required for travel within the Commonwealth. 

Submission of this form does not guarantee approval of the request. As this form requires multiple approvals, it should be submitted as far in advance of the expected travel date as is reasonably practicable. 

The digital version of the Travel Request Form is constructed with built-in routing and messaging. This form is designed to be routed for approval and completion. 

To initiate the form, go to ITS Help Desk – Services – Administrative Services - Travel Request Form

As with all Dynamic Forms, you must be signed into the MyMassasoit Portal to access your form. If you are a first-time user or are new to Dynamic Forms, detailed instructions on accessing the platform are located in the Knowledge Base.
