Woolfork DIGEST: Employee transferred to the Defense Contract Administration Services Region, Los Angeles, California, may not be reim- bursed for temporary quarters and subsist- ence expenses incurred more than 6 months after he reported for duty at his new official station. Since the employee's family did not vacate the residence at his old duty station, his claim for reimburse- ment must begin within 30 days following his arrival at the new duty station. Mr. Robert C. Woolfork, an employee of the Defense Logistics Agency at Lamoore, California, was transferred to Downey, California, reporting for duty at his new duty station on February 16, 1982, with relocation expense au- thorized. He requested a travel advance of $812, which was paid on June 4, 1982. When he did not file a travel voucher within the required time, payroll deductions began on Novem- ber 11, 1982, to recover the advance. On November 29, 1982, he submitted a voucher claiming temporary quarters subsist- ence expenses in the amount of $931.50 which were incurred during the period September 17 to October 16, 1982. The agency disallowed Mr. Woolfork's claim on the basis that he had not occupied temporary quarters within the time allowed. At Mr. Woolfork's request the agency has asked for a decision as to his entitlement to temporary quarters expenses.!/ It is his contention that he was delayed from occupying temporary quarters because his travel advance was not processed until June 1982 and that the regulations requiring occupancy of temporary quarters within 30 days 1/ This decision was requested by the Chief, Accounting and Finance Division, Office of the Comptroller, Defense Logistics Agency. It was forwarded through the Per Diem, Travel and Transportation Allowance Committee and assigned PDTATAC Control No. 85-28.
