Sec. 302-2.6  May I be reimbursed for relocation expenses if I relocate to a new official station that is less than 50 miles from my old official duty station?

    Generally no; you may not be reimbursed for relocation expenses if 
you relocate to a new official station that is less than 50 miles from 
your old official station, unless the head of the agency or designee 
authorizes an exception. On a case-by-case basis and having considered 
the following criteria, the head of your agency or designee may 
authorize the reimbursement of relocation expenses of less than 50 miles 
when he/she determines that it is in the interest of the Government: and
    (a) The one way commuting pattern between the old and new official 
station increases by at least 10 miles but no more than 50 miles; or
    (b) There is an increase in the commuting time to the new official 
station; or
    (c) A financial hardship is imposed due to increased commuting 
costs.
