Travel reimbursement delays

I have heard from a number of people in various departments on campus that travel reimbursement is taking a very long time (for example 6 months). Can you please tell me how long a traveler should expect to wait for reimbursement? Specifically, how long from the time they turn in receipts to their travel person until they receive a TER to sign?  How long from a signed TER to seeing the direct deposit? While I realize every department is different, is there any consensus on what is reasonable? Thanks.
