    MATTER OF:     James E. Allen

    DIGEST;
          An employee of ACTION who was a former
          Poretgn Service officer class 4, step 5
          was reappointed in the Foreign Service
          by AID at .class 4, step 7 after having
          executed document indicating he waived
          appointment at class 3, step 7.   AID regu-
          lations for deterrining an individual's
          personal class and initial pay rate upon
          appointment provided for reappointment at
          the class and step previously held in Fhe
          Foreign Service. Adjustment in class and
          step is permitted based upon qualifica-
          tions at the titie of reappointmenQ, but
          these 'regulations do not entitle the
          Individual to a class and step higher than
          that pteviously held. Thus, employee's
          assignment to class 4, step 7 was author-
          ized without regard to his execution of a
          waiver, and hts claim for backpay based on
          the higher clase and step is denied.
       By letter of September 7, 1982, Mr. James E. Allen
  appealed the adverse det.tmination by our Claims Group,
  AFMD, in Settlement Certificate No. Z-2833837, issued
  July 26, 198?.  Mr. Allen's claim is for a retroactive
  appointment as a Foreign Iervice Reserve officer in class 3,
  with pay at the step 7 rate, together with backpay for the
  difference in calary between that and class 4, step 7 which
  he held from July 2, 1978, until Novnmber 15, 1930.   The
  Claims Group's denial of Mr. Allen's claim is sustained.
