The federal ceiling on tax-free lodging reimbursement in Grand Junction is $113 per night, plus up to $68 a day for meals (GSA, FY2027).

Look up the exact rate for any ZIP code.

Licensing

Colorado is a Nurse Licensure Compact state, so an active multistate license covers you here. A single-state license from elsewhere does not. Check your license with the compact checker.
