41 C.F.R. Subpart C—Per Diem
Title 41 - Public Contracts and Property Management
Your per diem for en route relocation travel between your old and new official stations will be at the standard CONUS rate (see applicable FTR Per Diem Bulletins available on the Internet at http://www.gsa.gov/perdiem). You will be reimbursed in accordance with §§301–11.100 through 301–11.102 of this title. [FTR Amdt. 2003–03, 68 FR 22314, Apr. 28, 2003] Your authorized en route travel days and per diem are determined as follows: The number of authorized travel days is the actual number of days used to complete the trip, but not to exceed an amount based on a minimum driving distance per day determined to be reasonable by your agency. The minimum driving distance shall be not less than an average of 300 miles per calendar day. An exception to the daily minimum driving distance may be made when delay is beyond control of the employee, such as when it results from acts of God or restrictions by Government officials; when the employee is physically handicapped; or for other reasons acceptable to the agency. Yes, per diem for your immediate family members cannot be authorized if you are: (a) A new appointee; (b) Assigned to posts of duty outside CONUS returning to place of actual residence for separation; or (c) Being relocated under the Government Employees Training Act (5 U.S.C. 4109). The maximum amount your spouse may receive if he/she accompanies you while you are performing PCS travel is three-fourths of your daily per diem rate. If your spouse does not accompany you but travels unaccompanied at a different time, he/she will receive the same per diem rate to which you are entitled. No; for per diem purposes, you and your spouse are considered to be traveling together if you travel on the same days along the same general route by using more than one POV. Immediate family members age 12 or older receive three-fourths of your per diem rate, and children under 12 receive one-half of your per diem rate.
