MATTER OF:ob rt 3. Giknim - Relication and Travel Expeases


DIGEST:  1.


When tlhere is no administrative report
from the concerned agency Lidicating
the amunt  of expenses previously
reimbursed for relocation expenses, a
portion of the expene reimbu :, ment
must be withheld for Federal L c'me
tax purposes.


          2. An employee, while en route to a
             temporary duty station, claims
             additional mileage to facilitate the
             repair of his privately owned vehicle.'
             The evidence submitted does not justify
             reambursement of the additional expense.

          3. Where meals are o*btainable at the
            lodging of an employee at his
            tempotcry duty station, he is not
            entitled to reimbursement of mileage to
            obtain meals at another locatioa since
            special meals or desires as to services
            and variety are personal and not inci-
            dent to official business.


     This action results from the appeal by Robert B. Giknia for
reconsideration of Claim Settlements Z-2610079 dated April 22,
1976, and May 18, 1976, issued by our Claims Division. Settlement
dated Apcil 22, 1976, allowed Mr. Giknis' claim for reimbursement
of expenses incurred incident to the purchase of a residence at
his new duty station purduant to a change of duty station less a
deduction for Federal withholding tax. Settlement dated May 18,
1976, allowed that portion of Mr. Giknis' claim which was for
reimbursement of mileage from his lodging to and from his tempo-
rary duty station and 26 miles in and around his temporary duty
station.  That part of the claim for reimbursement of mileage to
obtain meals at his temporary duty station was disallowed.

     Mr. Giknis, a former employee of the Defense Contract Admin-
istration Services Office, was transferred from Marlboro,
