PCSing for the second time this calendar year. I am a married Marine.

    I’m on a smaller base that doesn’t have a fully staffed S1 and they are having a hard time giving me answers with full confidence.

    I have read parts of the JTR. My understanding is I am entitled to one DLA a fiscal year, which I have received for my previous move.
    The only exception for a second/partial DLA I see is“no lower than an O6 at the headquarters level who directs assignment.” On paper I am set to receive what looks like full DLA and the admin guys are saying it’s correct. I don’t want to be stuck down the road paying it back.

    TLE:
    I haven’t read anything saying it is only once a year, it reads as per PCS. Is this true? We used about a week of TLE for our previous move and are looking to use about 12 nights for this PCS. I am moving CONUS to CONUS.
    We received a letter of nonavailability, DMO’s website says reimbursable up to $290. What constitutes how much of that “up to”
    I am entitled to? I will be traveling with my wife, which the DMO chart says 100% applicable. Hotels are running a little under 200, and I’m trying to make sure we are not paying out of pocket.

    We are expecting another PCS OCONUS before the end of the year, but new fiscal year. If anyone has had any experience with PCSing multiple times a year any advice is appreciated.
