We appreciate our guests\u2019 compliance. Please note that these suggested instructions apply partially or totally, depending on the specific agreement reached between the Inserra office and each guest.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Book your flight to and from Newark Liberty International Airport only, as transportation from New York City airports to campus is either expensive or requires transfers. Please make sure you book it 3 months in advance in order to take advantage of good offers and direct flights. Flights are reimbursed only up to a specific amount specified at the time of the agreement for the on-campus engagement.<\/li>\n<li>Taxi or car service, if agreed upon, can be covered by the Inserra from and\/or to Newark Liberty International Airport exclusively.<\/li>\n<li>The agreed-upon honorarium is to be considered as gross income: an approximate 30% tax applies, according to U.S. fiscal regulations, unless the guest holds a SSN or TIN and is eligible for the full compensation as part of a bi-national agreement. In this case,\u00a0 taxes on that income will be paid in the home country. Follow the <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/global-education\/international-services\/hiring\/honorarium-payments\/\" target=\"_blank\">link<\/a> for more info.<\/li>\n<li>Plan to lodge either at a campus accommodation &#8212; space permitting&#8211; or a hotel off campus. Shuttle or taxi service to campus will be provided for the day of the engagement. Lodging is covered for two nights before the day of the engagement on campus, and the night of the engagement itself. If the guests has more than one engagement, s\/he will be covered for the nights in between as well. Note that the Inserra Chair cannot cover lodging in New York City due to the vast difference in price.<\/li>\n<li>Visits to New York City \u2013 a main attraction for visitors to ÌÇÐÄvlog, given its closeness (only 18 miles\/30 km) \u2013 are easy to plan. The campus is connected via direct trains and busses.
