The purpose of the Temporary Lodging Allowance is to partially reimburse a service member for the high cost of hotels and restaurants upon arrival at a permanent duty station pending moving into your new home. TLA is an OCONUS specific reimbursement program whereas the CONUS program is called Temporary Lodging Expense (TLE). TLE duration is a simple 7 days from CONUS to OCONUS and 14 days from OCONUS to CONUS between duty stations; this is regardless how long it takes to locate and move into a new home. TLA can be authorized up to 60 days and for this reason, along with high cost areas typical for OCONUS TLA, is a large expense to the Armed Services. The DoD 7000.14-R Financial Management Regulation provides the detailed information and specifically states that all levels are to: "(1) Preclude the need for TLA, (2) Shorten the authorized period, and (3) Reduce the amount payable." Here in Hawaii TLA is terminated the sooner of: day prior to moving into a home, when a member is found deficient in home finding efforts, local Installation Commander written guidance and limitations or 60 days. TLA is authorized in 10-day for Navy / 15-day for Air Force increments and is a reimbursable expense processed through your CPPA/RSC for Navy and your Hickam Communities Office and MPF Finance for Air Force. This means you must be prepared to pay your lodging bill every 10 days for Navy / 15 days for Air Force before placing a claim withyour CPPA/RSC for Navy and your Hickam Communities and MPF Finance; you need to come prepared to have a means to pay your bill. TLA reimbursement is based on a combination of factors such as number of dependents, ages of the children, if lodging has minimum cooking amenities and if NGIS or Navy Lodge was available if staying in a commercial facility. Please contact your CPPA/RSC for Navy and your Hickam Communities and MPF Finance for Air Force for current and accurate authorizations and values. Most hotels in Hawaii are familiar with TLA; you must specify you will be on TLA when you make your reservation. A Non Availability Statement (NAS) or Certificate of Non Availability (CNA) will be needed prior to going into a TLA approved hotel.
