Things you need to know:
- POV shipment to, from, and between an OCONUS post of duty is not taxable (includes POV Drop off and Pick up).
- POV shipment within CONUS is a taxable entitlement (includes POV drop off and pick up).
- Only one authorized traveler will be reimbursed for the round trip.
- Only Transportation expenses are reimbursed and mileage is reimbursed at the permanent change of station (PCS) rate, no per diem (lodging) is paid for POV drop-off and pick-up travel.
When you are dropping off your POV on the way to the airport or pick up on the way to the new PDS, this is claimed on the En Route travel claim. Indicate the drop off of you POV at the VPC by using code DV or PV as the reason for stop at the VPC location in your En Route itinerary.
