Sec. 842.25  Partial payments.

    Upon request of a claimant, a settlement authority may make a 
partial payment in advance of final settlement when a claimant 
experiences personal hardship due to extensive property damage or loss. 
Examples where partial payments are appropriate include fires and sunken 
transport ships. Partial payments are made in this manner:
    (a) If a claim for only part of the loss is submitted and is readily 
provable, pay it up to the amount of the settlement authority. (The 
claimant may later amend the claim for the remainder of the loss.) If 
the total payable amount of the claim exceeds the payment limits of the 
settlement authority, send it with recommendations through claims 
channels to the proper settlement authority.
    (b) When the total claim is submitted and the amount payable exceeds 
the settlement authority, pay a partial payment within the limits of 
settlement authority and send the claim, with recommendations, through 
claims channels to the proper settlement authority.
