     By a letter dated March 21, 1977, Ms. Virginia Leist,
an authorized certifying officer wich the Central Region
of the Internal Revenue Service, requested an advance decision
regarding the reclaim voucher of Mr. Frank M. Lindeen in
the amount of $551.70 for the expenses of selling a house
incident to a permanent change of duty station.

     The record shows that Mr. Lindeen, who was stationed in
Gary, Indiana, was given a temporary promotion on December 8,
1972, and detailed to Buffalo, New York. Mr. Lindeen's
detail lasted for two years. He was authorized per diem for
the entire period, as his official post remained Gary, Indiana.
While on detail MT. Lindeen rented his house in Gary. At the
end of the detail Mr. Lindeen was assigned to a post of duty
in Indianapolis, Indiaia, and authorized moving expenses from
Gary to Indianapolis.  At that time Mr. Lindeen sold his
residence in Gary.

     Reimbursement for the costs of 9ale was administratively
disallowed in accordance with paragra-h 2-6.10 of the Federal
Travel Regulations (PPMR 101-7, May 19-7), as Mr. Lindeen
was not residing in the house on the dare upon which he
was first definitely informed of the transfer. Upon reclaim
Mr. Lindeen states that he was a resident of Gary at the
time of transfer and that he would have been reesding in
the house but for the action of the Government in detailing
him to Buffalo, New York.
