Duke University's Office of Financial Services has made significant strides in easing the burden and streamlining the procedures when it comes to paying non-resident foreign nationals.  Several resources have been created.

Payments to Foreign Nationals matrices for eligibility define what types of visitors to the US are eligible for payments.

Procedures and requirements for issuing payments to Foreign Nationals provide a list of the documentation that must be completed and/or copied from travel documents, in order to remit payments.
