Can an officer’s son or daughter return to the U.S. for formal education?
Yes. An officer who is permanently stationed OCONUS and is accompanied by his/her dependents at or in the vicinity of the officer’s PDS is authorized one annual round-trip, for the dependent student, at any time within a fiscal year (1 Oct – 30 Sep) between the member’s OCONUS PDS and the dependent student’s school in the U.S. Effective 9 February 2002, for a dependent student who is attending a school outside the U.S. for less than one year under a program approved by the school in the U.S. at which the dependent is enrolled, the member may be reimbursed for one annual round trip for the dependent student between the school being attended by that student and the member’s OCONUS PDS; however, reimbursement can not exceed the transportation allowance for that dependent’s annual round trip between the school in the U.S. and the member’s OCONUS PDS. NOTE: Entitlement to a portion of a round-trip not taken during a fiscal year ordinarily does not carry over to a subsequent fiscal year. How
