Termination of Separate Maintenance Allowance

An appeal was made of a denial of a claim for separate maintenance allowance in connection with temporary duty performed by an employee evacuated from Saigon to Philippines. Such allowances terminate when the employee commences travel incident to transfer from his post where the allowance was granted. Since he was evacuated from his post and quarters, and was not expected to return thereto, his claim was denied. The denial was sustained.
