How to claim your reimbursement

Once you have verbal approval from your manager, you may pay for your development opportunity. To be reimbursed, log in to My Adobe Benefits, and follow these instructions:

  • Select Reimbursements.
  • Select Make a Claim and benefit period (year).
  • Select Professional Development for the type of claim.
  • Upload and attach scanned invoice and receipts.
  • Invoice of costs, as well as receipts, are required for reimbursement.
  • Acknowledge that you’ve read the policy and had a conversation with your manager.
  • Complete the required fields, and select Submit.

Once your claim is submitted, it will be automatically sent to your manager for approval.

Managers: You will receive a notification from My Adobe Benefits that your employee has submitted a claim. Please log on and review the claim, including coursework, costs, and vendor or institution. Once you approve, the claim will be sent to the vendor for final approval and processing. If you are based in a different country than your employee, please reply to the email requesting your approval.

You must submit your reimbursement claims through My Adobe Benefits with all required documentation for development opportunities in the current year by December 30. Any expenses submitted after December 30 will be reimbursable from the following year’s allowance.

Note: Employees hired in December will need to email the Benefits Support Team at adobebenefits@darwin.com for assistance with submitting your current-year claims. Beginning in January, you will be able to submit claims via the My Adobe Benefits site.
