C. 20548 r ,j,. 3I4le ~~ 7~~ade/t ~~~e,6$4{.das'4 rILE=: D-19416 MATTER OFThomas D. Salter - Constructive Travel Expenses - Rental Car DIGEST: Employee, who voluntarily returned home from temporary duty on a weekend, may not include the constructive cost of a car rental for that period in determining the reimbursement for his travel. No official business was performed during the weekend, there is no evidence that it would have been impractical to return the car over the weekend, and the car was driven to the airport and returned incident to the employee's trip home. This action is at the request of Georgine Williams, Certifying Officer, Internal Revenue Service (IRS), for an advance decision on the reclaim of Mr. Thomas D. Salter in the amount of $27, which represents a constructive rental car expense. Mr. Salter, an Internal Auditor with IRS stationed in Chicago, Illinois, was assigned to temporary duty travel at Kansas City, Missouri. He was authorized to return to his official station on nonworkdays in accordance with the Federal Travel Regulations (FPMR 101-7) para. 1-7. 5c (May 1973), which provides: c. Return to official station on nonworkdays. At the discretion of the administra- tive officials, a traveler may be required to return to his official station for nonworkdays. In cases of voluntary return of a traveler for nonworkdays to. his official station or his place of abode from which he commutes daily to his official station, the reim- bursement allowable for the round-trip transporta- tion and per diem en route may not exceed the per diem and any travel expense which would have been allowable had the traveler remained at his temporary duty station. In accordance with this authorization, Mr. Salter traveled from Kansas City to his residence near Chicago during the weekend of October 6, 1978, at an actual cost of $148, which included air, taxi, and limousine fares.
