Highlights

Consideration was requested of an employee's claim regarding expenses incurred incident to transfer involving: (1) transportation and storage of household effects; (2) real estate transactions; and (3) temporary quarters subsistence. Requests were made that the first portion of the claim be reported to Congress under the Meritorious Claims Act and that reimbursement be made for other specified items. The claim did not involve circumstances of an unusual nature and therefore was not for reporting to Congress. Reimbursements for fees incident to real estate transactions were disallowed as they were considered finance charges. Replacement of garbage disposal was not allowable, and claim for transporting children while occupying temporary quarters was not reimbursable.
