What is the purpose of NPPSC 7220/2?

• A. Substantiate and evaluate the amount paid for TLE
• B. Audit TLA
• C. Verify travel orders
• D. Approve lodging allowances

Answer: (A)

The main function here is to substantiate and evaluate what was paid for Temporary Lodging Expense. This form collects receipts and records to prove the lodging costs and to check that the reimbursed amount aligns with policy, actual rates, and authorized limits. It creates an auditable trail and helps identify any needed corrections, such as an overpayment or underpayment. It isn’t used for auditing Temporary Lodging Allowance, verifying travel orders, or approving lodging allowances, which are handled in other parts of the process.
