Moving: Move-in housing allowance

A move-in housing allowance is available to members moving into their first quarters for an overseas assignment, if they also receive an overseas housing allowance. There are three kinds of move-in housing allowance:

å Miscellaneous. This fixed-rate payment reflects average costs incurred in a geographic region to make a home habitable. Rates change with inflation and currency exchange.

å Rent. This covers all reasonable rent-related expenses, which are fixed, one-time, nonrefundable charges, such as real estate agents’ fees for helping renters find housing.

å Security. This covers the expense for security-related enhancements when the quarters must be modified to minimize exposure to terrorist or criminal threat.
