Civilian Relocation PCS Entitlements
Government civilians performing PCS moves are eligible for entitlements to help them with the move. Some authorizations for entitlements are left to agency discretion, please review your orders to see which entitlements you are eligible for. Contact your order issuing office for additional information on entitlements authorized for your specific PCS move.
Important Tax Information to understand before your move
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 changed what entitlements are taxable. When you perform a Civilian Permanent Change of Station (PCS) with the government, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) considers the majority of your entitlements to be taxable. As such, income tax withholdings will be taken out of your civilian PCS reimbursements by DFAS and remitted to the IRS.
Find out more about the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 tax changes here.
