If you are claiming for reimbursement for Documented Ordinary Expenses and/or Documented Extraordinary Losses, you will need to provide proof, like receipts, to show how much you spent or lost. You can also provide notes or papers you made yourself to explain or support other proof, but those notes or papers alone are not enough to make a valid claim.
