The Joint Travel Regulations, Section C4553-B, C and D have been revised to clarify that the 75% of the Meals and Incidental Expenses (M&IE) rate for the temporary duty (TDY) location is applicable for the day of departure and the day of return to the permanent duty station. Rather than compute what percent of the first and last day was spent on travel and meals, employees have the option of charging 75% of the M&IE per diem rates to those incomplete travel days.
The Joint Travel Regulations, Section C4678-C3 was amended to allow lodging reimbursement up to the maximum rate for TDY location when a traveler goes to a location other than their permanent duty station or home on weekends while on TDY. The revision clarifies that transportation expenses to locations other than the permanent duty station (PDS) while on TDY are not reimbursable.
