But should we punish our Trusted Organizations with reimbursement requests that take several months? It takes 15 to 30 minutes to gather receipts, scan/snail-mail them, and request reimbursement via email. If for good reasons, you are temporarily so busy that it's not possible for you to find those 30 minutes in 3 months, I can accept that, and will not blindly reject reimbursement requests (especially if you send an email to inform that you will be late before the 3 months deadline). But on the other hand, I would like to set the expectation that reimbursement requests should generally be sent in less than 3 months, which seems to me like a totally reasonable deadline in the general case.
