handle is hein.gao/gaobadnnz0001 and id is 1 raw text is: The Comptioller General of the United States Washlaom, D.C. 2048 Decision Wayne I. Tucker - Relocation Expenses - Temporary Matterof: Quarters Subsistence Expenses File: B-198510.3 Date: August 23, 1989 DIGEST 1. An employee under permanent change-of-station orders interrupted occupancy of temporary quarters at his new duty station to travel to his old duty station to complete the transfer of his household goods and the relocation of his family. He stayed in his old residence for 3 days and in a motel for 2 days. Except for the actual round-trip travel en route between the new duty station and the old duty station, the employee is not entitled to per diem for purposes of completing transfer arrangements. However, since the tolling of the temporary quarters subsistence expenses (TQSE) period is interrupted only by the travel time for which the employee receives per diem, TQSE may be available to cover the days spent in the motel if the agency determines that the allowable period in this case had not expired. 2. While an employee occupies temporary quarters at his old duty station to make arrangements for the transfer of his household goods and family to his new duty station, he is not entitled to local transportation expenses. DECISION An authorized certifying officer of the Department of EnergyL/ asks whether an employee's reclaim voucher for certain travel and transportation allowances incident to a permanent change of duty station may be paid. For the reasons stated below, we conclude that the claims were properly disallowed. l/ Robert R. Goodfellow, Washington, D.C. c$,4.c3lR 131B40O
