    Taxability of Employee Travel to Campus

    While Cornell may pay for or reimburse an employee’s expenses incurred to travel to campus from a remote work location, the costs paid for or reimbursed may be taxable to the employee in certain instances. 

    The taxability of these expenses is not explicitly determined by an employee’s classification as a staff or faculty member, fully remote, hybrid, or on-campus. However, travel to campus for employees who are not fully remote (e.g., hybrid/on-site employees) is considered commuting and is not reimbursable. If paid, these amounts are taxable.
