THE  COMPTROLLER GENERAL
OF   THE UNITED STATES
WASH IN   GTON.  .C . 20548


FILE:  B-195941


DATE:  October 18, 1979


MATTER OF: Commander David C. Honhart,   USN


DIGEST:


1.  Where dependents of a member of a uniformed
    service move from an overseas duty station
    without orders and upon a subsequent perma--
    nent change of station the member is trans-
    ferred to a permanent.station where he is
    assigned Government quarters, he is not
    entitled to a dislocation allowance pursuant
    to 37 U.S.C. 407 (1976).


            2. Where dependents of a member of a uniformed
               service move from an overseas duty station
               without orders and without authorization from
               the Secretary concerned, a claim for reimburse-
               ment by the member for the dependents' trans-
               portation costs on a subsequent permanent
               change of station of the member must be denied.

            3. Where a member of a uniformed service
               stationed overseas incurrs expenses for
               housing in excess of the amount authorized
               to be paid to him for BAQ and overseas
               station allowances, his claim for extra- -
               ordinary expenses to cover the additional
               cost  must be denied. No authority exists
               for payment of extraordinary expenses and
               a member may only be paid allowances for
               housing and living expenses authorized by
               law and regulations.

     Three issues are presented in this appeal from a settlement
of our Claims Division. They are 1) whether a member of the
uniformed services may be paid a dislocation allowance where his
dependents move from an overseas duty station without orders and
upon a subsequent permanent change of station (PCS) the member
is transferred to a permanent station where he is assigned Govern-
ment quarters, 2) whether a member of the uniformed services may
be reimbursed for the transportation expenses of his dependents
who moved from an overseas duty station without orders and without
authorization from the Secretary concerned and the member is
