The following guidance is provided for DFAS employees ordered to evacuate:

Pre-Evacuation:

• Follow the mandatory evacuation orders of the host installation commander and civil authorities.
• It is critical to stay in touch with your supervisor so we can account for you, confirm you are safe, and pass information to you.

 During the Evacuation: 

• Notify your supervisor once you’ve reached your final destination.
• You will be in a paid travel status and on paid administrative leave.
• You are entitled to use your government travel card to pay for official travel expenses which include mileage/transportation, lodging, and per diem.
• If you don't have a government card, you may use your personal credit card or cash.  Keep your receipts for lodging and other authorized expenses over $75.  These receipts must reflect your name.

After the Evacuation:

• DFAS will issue DD Form 1610 upon return to your duty station.
• Submit your travel voucher within five business days.

If you have questions during any stage, contact your supervisor or chain of command.  Be safe!
