Internal tuition assistance
The juice is worth the squeeze.
LemonAid runs tuition assistance end to end, from pre-approval to payroll-ready reimbursement, with sample cap and Section 127 illustrations.
One path, from request to payroll
Every request follows the same four steps, so employees always know where they stand and reviewers always see the full picture.
01
Request pre-approval
Employees submit course details and estimated costs before the course begins.
02
Manager, then HRBP
Approvals run in sequence, so each reviewer sees the same complete record.
03
Submit completion
Grades, credits, and proof of payment are uploaded once the course ends.
04
Review and export
Sample caps and Section 127 illustrations are computed, then exported as demo payroll files.
For HR and Total Rewards
Built for the team that owns the program
Sequential review
Approvals that stay in order
Manager and HRBP review in sequence, each on the same record, with a full decision trail behind every outcome.

Your rules, not ours
Company caps, degree types, and approver titles come from your admin configuration. Nothing about your program is hard-coded.

Tax treatment handled

Payroll-ready
Export you can run as-is
Approved reimbursements export as a clean, auditable report, formatted for the people who actually cut the checks.

Section 127, illustrated with sample data
