File an invoice only when you are requesting payment for services you personally performed. We can only pay the individual who completed the work -- no third parties or friends. The person who performed the work must be the owner of the account receiving payment.

We have strict requirements for what we can and cannot process. Certain information is required on all invoices, and we cannot process payment if required information is missing.

Please review our full policies before submitting:
https://docs.oscollective.org/for-hosted-member-projects/spending-money-and-getting-paid

If your expense is missing required information or documentation, you will be asked to revise it before processing can begin.

Processing and Payment:

Expenses are processed twice weekly after approval by a Collective administrator and a secondary OSC review
Payments are made via PayPal or Wise (bank transfer)
Payments are limited to countries supported by these providers
If you use PayPal, you may be required to complete a KYC process

An uploaded invoice is not required -- the information entered in the expense form is sufficient.
If you choose to upload an invoice, address it to:

Collective/Project Name, Open Source Collective
440 N. Barranca Avenue #3939
Covina, CA 91723, USA

Usually if you have done a presentation of JCB at a big event, and have a video recording, with the slideshows and well enough proof of your travel cost, and boarding expense … you can submit an expense claim. At this time we only planning to contribute at most $1500 per/event as donations are made available. Give us as much info as you can upfront in the "Private instructions", best if we need not ask for more details later.

If you are part of the core developers, your contribution on gitHub is used to calculate a gift amount. Therefore before submitting any expense claim, please communicate with our Core Team leader, Llewellyn, and he will guide you in the right direction.

For all other expense claims, please communicate with us before at https://t.me/jcb_group
