Are both employees authorized Miscellaneous Expense Allowances (MEA) in the same household?
A3: Yes when two employees without dependents discontinue the same residence at the old PDS and establish one residence at the new PDS provided (see GSBCA 16608-RELO, 3 August 2005): (1) both employees without dependents have separate relocation expenses exclusive of common expenses such as discontinuance or establishment of utility; and, (2) Separate expenses are applicable to that employee. Examples of separate employee expenses are identification document changes such as driver license or medical. However if the employees do not have separate relocation expenses, only one MEA is paid (73 COMP. GEN. 164 (1994)).
