Highlights
A decision was requested concerning payment of travel expenses for a transferred employee's infant born after the employee reported to his new station. Payment cannot be made since the infant was not a member of the employee's immediate family at the time of change of station according to regulations. However, regulations should be changed to authorize travel costs of an infant born after an employee reports to his new station if his wife's prior travel was precluded by pregnancy.
