Parent Mileage Reimbursement Program (PMR)
If you would rather transport your child to and from their program (and not use the bus), you can enroll in the Parent Mileage Reimbursement (PMR) program. As noted in state regulations,
In developing its recommendation for a preschool student with a disability to receive programs and services, the committee must identify transportation options for the student and encourage parents to transport their child at public expense where cost- effective.
In order to receive mileage reimbursements, you need to have an agreement with Ulster County and submit monthly vouchers. To get started, complete and fill out an updated Transportation Request Form.
You and your child’s program must sign this form. Once Prismatic receives the TRF, we will send you a packet with 3 additional forms to complete:
- Ulster County Vendor application Not Available in Spanish
- W-9 Form or Formulario W-9
- Provider Agreement & Statement of Reassignment or Acuerdo de Proveedor & Declaración de reasignación
(click on each to download a copy)
Once you are approved as a vendor by Ulster County, you will need to submit a monthly voucher within 30 days after the end of each month. Be accurate when filling out the voucher and be sure to sign and date it correctly.

Once completed, send the voucher to:
Ulster County DSS / Preschool
1071 Development Court
Kingston, NY 12401
Be aware that it can take up to 60 days for your correct voucher to be processed and your reimbursement check to be sent out. If there are errors in your voucher submission, Ulster County will contact you for corrections.
If your address changes, your program changes, or your school district changes, you must fill out a new TRF so that your mileage can be re-adjusted.
