HRDG 4335 - Section B

In situations where the reassignment request is for a location outside the 50 United States and the District of Columbia, an expanded leave ceiling and home leave may be an added entitlement. Additional information on expanded annual leave ceilings and home leave is located in the Human Resources Desk Guide Subchapter 4630, Absence and Leave, as noted below:

• Section B, subsection d, Annual Leave Ceilings for Employees Outside the U.S.
• Section I, Home Leave

Permanent or temporary moves, at the employee’s personal request, to a new location will not be paid by the Agency. All expenses associated with the move will be at the employee’s personal expense.

Employees will request leave in advance for the move; administrative leave may not be granted.

Pay: Locality pay will depend on the location of the ODS as noted on the SF-50. This means that an employee’s pay may increase, decrease, or remain the same.

Tour of Duty: The supervisor will be responsible for discussing and establishing the employee’s new tour of duty, if applicable.
