RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS

		COUNSEL:  NONE

		HEARING DESIRED:  NO

________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

Her home of record (HOR) be changed from Hope, IN to Columbia, SC.  

________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

Her travel entitlements associated with consecutive overseas travel (COT) cover allowances to her home of record.  Since her parents moved to Columbia, SC and no longer reside in Hope, IN, she would like her HOR changed for proper COT benefits.  

The applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.

________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant is currently serving in the Regular Air Force in the grade of senior airman (E-4).

According to the applicant’s DD Form 4/1,Enlistment/Reenlistment Document Armed Forces of the United States, Hope, IN was her home of record at the time of her enlistment.

________________________________________________________________

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPSIPE recommends denial, indicating the applicant’s records reflect Hope, IN as the HOR at which she resided prior to entering the Air Force.  This address is listed as her HOR on the DD Form 4 and serves as the source document for the HOR.  Appendix A of the Joint Federal Travel Regulations (JFTR) for Uniformed Service Members indicates the HOR is the place recorded as the home of the individual when commissioned, appointed, enlisted, inducted, or ordered into a tour of active duty.  As such, there was no error or justification that warrants a change in the applicant’s HOR. 
A complete copy of the AFPC/DPSIPE evaluation is at Exhibit C.

________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant on 11 January 2013, for review and comment within 30 days (Exhibit D).  As of this date, this office has received no response.  

________________________________________________________________

THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:

1.  The applicant has exhausted all remedies provided by existing law or regulations.

2.  The application was timely filed.

3.  Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to demonstrate the existence of an error or injustice.  We took notice of the applicant's complete submission in judging the merits of the case; however, we agree with the opinion and recommendation of the Air Force office of primary responsibility and adopt its rationale as the basis for our conclusion the applicant has not been the victim of an error or injustice.  Therefore, in the absence of evidence to the contrary, we find no basis to recommend granting the relief sought in this application.

________________________________________________________________

THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:

The applicant be notified the evidence presented did not demonstrate the existence of material error or injustice; the application was denied without a personal appearance; and the application will only be reconsidered upon the submission of newly discovered relevant evidence not considered with this application.
