handle is hein.gao/gaobadnst0001 and id is 1 raw text is: The Comptroller General of the United States Washington, D.C. 20548 Decision Ida Faye Robinson - Relocation Expenses - Matterof. Retransfer to Former Duty Station Within One Year File: B-234476 Date: April 23, 1990 DIGEST 1. Employee was transferred from Columbus to Dayton and then back to Columbus within 1 year. She sold her Columbus residence within 1 year from effective date of first trans- fer and prior to official notice of retransfer. Subsequent transfer does not extinguish the right to reimbursement created by the initial transfer. Employee is entitled to reimbursement of residence sale expenses incident to initial transfer to Dayton. Further, employee is entitled to residence purchase expenses incident to the retransfer to Columbus. 2. A transferred employee claimed temporary quarters subsistence expenses for herself for 4 days when inclement weather prevented her from returning to her residence at old duty station which she had not vacated in order to allow daughter to complete school session. Her claim is disallowed since she had not vacated her old residence as required by the Federal Travel Regulations before temporary quarters expenses may be reimbursed. 3. Employee whose old and new residences were in Columbus occupied temporary quarters for 30 days in connection with successive transfers. She acquired a new permanent residence but was unable to occupy new residence immediately because of a holdover provision allowing the sellers to remain in possession. Paragraph C13006 of the Joint Travel Regulations, volume 2 (FTR para. 2-5.2h), which generally prohibits payment of TQSE for short distance transfers, is not a bar to payment since this provision was not intended to apply to situations where the old residence sale is under one transfer order and the new residence purchase is under another order as the timing of the sale and purchase are no longer within the employee's control. /
