How To Submit Payments To Honorarium, Guest Lecturer Or Peer Reviewer?
Introduction
The Honorarium, Guest Lecturer & Peer Reviewer Payment Request Form (HGL) is used to request token payments to individuals for service they performed, for which payment is optional.
By token payments, the University means a modest payment that reasonably equates to nothing more than a nominal payment in partial recognition of the speaker’s actual worth and intended to cover incidental expenses associated with the provision of the non-compensated services.
The criteria for an honorarium payment are as follows:
- Must be a token payment
- Payment must be one time
- Payment must not be required for the services rendered where an amount has been agreed upon
- Payment must be made to an individual and not a company
The threshold for an honorarium is $2,000 and is limited to 5 days within a 12-month period. Independent Contractor (IC) paperwork is needed for anything over $2,000.
