   MATTER OF:                                   USA, Reserve

OlGEST*-

           An r Force Reserve member ordered to
          active duty with her consent for a period
          of more than 20 weeks at the same location
          is at her permanent duty station and is
          not entitled to travel per diem while
          there. She, however, may receive travel
          per diem payments for several periods of
          temporary duty at locations other than the
          permanent duty station.
                                      USAF, Reserve, requests
  review of the dtsallowance1 of' er claim for per diem in
  connection with her 148-day tour of active duty at Scott Air
  Force Base, Illinois. Since a member of a Reserve component
  called to active duty for 20 weeks or more is considered to
  be at her permanent duty station, and no per diem is payable
  for this period of active duty except when the member is
  away from the permanent station on temporary duty, the
  denial is sustained.

       By orders of September 16, 1981,               was
  ordered to active duty with her consenat Scott A r Force
  Base, Illinois, for a period of 151 days. She was to serve
  9 days in fiscal year 1981 from September 21 to 29, 1981,
  and then 142 days in fiscal year 1982, from October 1, 1981,
  to February 19, 1982. Subsequently, hit orders were amended
  to reduce her total tour of duty to 148 days by reducing the
  142 days in fiscal year 1982 to 139 days.

       The amended orders came about because, under applicable
  Air Force regulations, when Reserve members perform tours
  of duty in excess of 139 days in a fiscal year, advance
  approval by appropriate Air Force authority is required.2/


  1/   The General Accounting Office's Claims Group dis-
       allowed the claim by settlement certificate, dated
       March 2, 1984.
