What is the definition of “family member” under the Humanitarian/Exceptional Family Member Programs?
Answer. Family member is described as a spouse, child, father, mother, person in loco parentis, or other persons actually residing in the household who are dependent for over half of their financial support. Stepparents can qualify as a family member under this program if they meet the basic criteria for in loco parentis. Parents-in-law can qualify if there is no other way to alleviate the situation, there are no other family members in the local area who can assist, and your reassignment would not require approval of a second dislocation allowance (second move within the same fiscal year).
