Temporary Lodging Expense

Temporary Lodging Expense partially reimburses a service member for lodging and meal expenses while staying in temporary lodging in the continental United States during a permanent change of station. A service member may not receive both TLE and per diem for PCS travel on the same day. TLE may be paid for any day that per diem for PCS travel time is not paid, up to 7 or 14 days.

More information on the TLE benefit can be found through your local pay office. You can find the contact information for your local pay office through MilitaryINSTALLATIONS.
