With certain military moves, you may find yourself looking for housing that’s a little less permanent before making long-term arrangements. There are several temporary housing options that may be right for you. Explore the information about temporary housing facilities including allowances, lodging rates and eligibility.
There are several options for temporary lodging for transferring service members and their families: Navy Gateway Inns and Suites, Navy Lodge, local hotels, or Airbnb/VRBO. Keep in mind that for Temporary Lodging Expense (TLE) reimbursement, only a maximum of 14 days is authorized whenever a service member transfers. You will be responsible for any time after these 14-days. You must have a Certificate of Non-availability in order to apply TLE to Local Hotels or Airbnb/VRBO.
