Members can’t, but according to information in the Help Centre, the RS and EQ Presidents can! This applies to the UK, but is probably the same for the USA.

It applies in the USA as well, and includes the entire presidency, (at least in the USA). I am an EQ counselor and have the option available to submit expenses, though I have not had a need to do so since the option became available. I suspect all organization presidencies have the same access, not just RS and EQ.

I recommend you send your receipt to your organization president and they should be able to submit it for you or will pass it to the clerk to do so. Be sure to identify the purpose of the expense. You can take a photo of the receipt or scan it to send to them - it must be uploaded as part of the reimbursement process unless your unit is using paper records (in which case they would need a hard copy of the receipt).

The other thing that you can do is go into the donations settings and make sure you have an Expense Reimbursement Account setup. That way you can get the reimbursement electronically.

Where would RS or EQ go to submit the expenses online? In LCR or somewhere else?
