Some people in my company found a loophole

For me we don't need a receipt if it's under $70 or something like that.

It surprised me too. Of course the expense has to be justified and approved

Yeah, no debate IMO.

7/23/17 8:17pm

Not true. The IRS has set per diems and many companies prefer to pay that amount

If it's per diem, no ethical issue. if reimbursement, it's not for your family

OP said nothing about per diem, just a daily allowance, which is very different

Tim, the post said, "your employer allows $65." It didn't specify why and now

Per diem is usually tied to IRS rules. The other is not.

The word "allows" leads me to believe that this is reimbursement, not per diem

That's a totally different scenario. That's your money.

That's not the same as what OP described.

smart companies avoid the moral hazard and just reimburse the whole amount.

Smart companies get receipts for everything.

When I had per diem I was given a card for my meals for the week I was gone.
