Cash Advances
Before requesting a cash advance you should have already completed the human subjects training and been added to the FALCON Lab's IRB protocol. Once you have developed a study and are ready to begin running paid participants you need to fill out the form below and give it to Mike so he can email it to Laura Meitz (lmeitz@austin.utexas.edu):
After filling out your personal information and the information describing your study, you will be asked to specify an account number, amount, date required, and the length of advance. Please check with Mike BEFORE filling out a Cash Advance Request Form if you are unsure which account number you are supposed to use. Also verify that he has authorized you to request an advance on the account. Please note that it takes approximately 10 days to receive a cash advance. You must request a minimum of $500.00. The maximum length of time that you may request a cash advance is 6 months. You may only spend this cash within the request period dates – NEVER outside of these dates. After the cash advance period has expired, the participant receipt forms and any remaining funds (in the form of a check) must be returned to the KHE administrative office (718) within 30 days. Please see the compensation page for information on paying participants: Participant Compensation Page.
Each cash advance will need a multiple participant form filled out to indicate who has been paid and when. Make sure to keep information confidential so that the latest subject cannot see the previous names listed.
