→The Form
[[Image:cheque_diagram.jpg|300px|frameless|left]]If you need the cheque to be mailed out, please follow the directions outline on the chequereq form (right). After you finish filling it out, staple your receipt '''TO THE BACK''' of the form and place it in the chequereq box (diagram below). <br>
If any step is incorrect, illegible, or lacks documentation, the cheque req will be rejected. Stapling receipts to the front of the cheque req form is grounds for rejection, so make sure everything is neat and organized before submitting. You have been warned.
===Proper Receipts===
A proper receipt shows the pre-tax amount, the provincial sales tax, and the government sales tax. It also shows the TPS (GST) and TPQ (PST) numbers of the business. Note Quebec receipts may list the French abbreviations:<center>National: <span style="font-size:18px;">GST<i class="fa fa-arrow-right"></i>TPS<br></span>Provincial: <span style="font-size:18px;">PST<i class="fa fa-arrow-right"></i>TVQ</span></center>If any of these elements are missing, the sales tax will be charged to your accounts, and you might not find out until it's too late. Generally speaking, receipts that are provided by a store include all of these elements by default, and you probably don't need to bother checking them.<br>
Pizza places and other small cash businesses commonly give you handwritten receipts without the proper information, but these can still allow you to be reimbursed- just don't expect to get charged the pre-tax amount if you don't have the tax numbers. Likewise, pizza places, cab drivers, and other businesses often will take cash tips, but if you want to be reimbursed for the tip, get them to write the tip on the receipt and sign for it.<br>
