In order to try and keep costs down with regards to expenses when travelling to interviews and training does the IET allow the cost of a senior rail card to be claimed. These cards are £30.00 per annum and can save over a third of the cost of rail travel.
Yes - we do. As Alex points out, if the cost of the railcard is absorbed by any saving on a single ticket purchase then it is very easily justified. However, it may also be accepted if you are making regular travel arrangements and the cost of the card will be recouped (and a saving made) across more than one claim. The best thing is to talk to your staff contact to agree this, then they can annotate your claim when it comes through and it shouldn't be queried.
If you need any further guidance on this please let me know.
