Does the Claims Division consider civilian employee travel or pay claims?
Generally, no. An appeal of an unfavorable Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS) adjudication involving civilian compensation or leave is filed through the appropriate DFAS office with the Office of Personnel Management. Similarly, appeals of DFAS actions related to civilian travel and relocation claims must be submitted through DFAS to the General Services Board of Contract Appeals. The one exception is that the Claims Division will consider requests by civilian employees of DoD (usually submitted through DFAS) that DoD waive debts they owe to the DoD which resulted from the erroneous overpayment of pay and allowances (including travel and relocation).
