 MATTER OF:     Donald W. Haley - Miscellaneous Expenses -
                Teacher Certification Fee - Medical
                Records Transfer Fee
 DIGEST:
          1. Under Federal Travel Regulations
             para. 2-3.1, miscellaneous expenses
             incurred because of a transfer may
             be reimbursed. The employee may
             be reimbursed for (1) his wife's
             teacher certification fee as a
             license fee, and (2) his wife's
             teacher course tuition fee which
             was required as a condition prece-
             dent to the issuance of the teacher
             certification, where employee's
             wife had been a certified teacher
             in state in which old duty station
             was located.

          2. Under Federal Travel Regulations
              para. 2-3.1, miscellaneous expenses
              incurred because of a transfer may
              be reimbursed, but those costs
              incurred for reasons of personal
              taste or preference and not required
              because of the move may not be reim-
              bursed. The employee may not be
              allowed reimbursement of a medical
              records transfer fee, since trans-
              mittal fees are reimbursable only
              when the subject of the transmittal
              is a reimbursable expense, and
              expenses relating generally to
              medical arrangements of transferred
              employees are not reimbursable.

     This decision arises from a request by Ms. Anita R.
Smith, Authorized Certifying Officer, National Pinance
Center, United States Department of Agriculture, for
an advance decision as to whetner Donald W. Haley, an
employee of the agency, may be reimoursed for various
miscellaneous expenses in the amount of $216.75 that he
incurred in relocating purtsianc to  .   '.ter. ckto  e of
