The Comptroller General
of the United States
Washington, D.C. 20548

Decision

           Donna J. Williams - Waiver - Erroneous Credit of

Matter of- Annual Leave

File:      B-230366

Date:      June 27, 1988


DIGEST

An employee's annual leave account was erroneously
overcredited due to the agency's error in calculating her
service computation date and, thus, the number of hours of
leave she was to accrue each pay period. Since there was a
positive balance remaining in the employee's leave account
after the agency adjusted her account to correct the
administrative error, there was no overpayment of pay or
allowances which may be considered for waiver under
5 U.S.C. § 5584.


DECISION

This action is in response to a request from Ms. Donna J.
Williams for waiver of the government's claim to over-
credited annual leave. For the reasons stated below, we
find that the Federal Crop Insurance Corporation (FCIC) may
not waive collection of the leave.

BACKGROUND

Ms. Williams retired from military service with the
Department of the Air Force in 1975, after having completed
20 years of service. She was hired on a career-conditional
appointment by the Federal Crop Insurance Corporation,
Department of Agriculture, on December 22, 1985.
  In 1987, Ms. Williams was advised that her service
  computation dates for leave accrual, retirement, and
  reduction in force were calculated in error by the personnel
  office since her years in military service had erroneously
  been included in the computation.l/




  1/ Employees who receive military retired pay are entitled
  to civil service credit for these years of service only
  under certain circumstances. 5 U.S.C. § 6303 (1982).
