Under TLE, what percentage is typically reimbursed for additional dependents under the age of 12?

Under the Temporary Lodging Expense (TLE) policy, service members who are relocating and have additional dependents under the age of 12 can typically receive reimbursement at a rate of 25%. This percentage is established to provide adequate financial support for families managing the costs associated with temporary lodging during a permanent change of station.

The TLE is designed to assist military personnel in covering the extra expenses that accrue when finding suitable accommodations for their dependents, especially when children under 12 are involved, as they may require additional considerations for lodging arrangements. By offering a higher percentage for families with younger dependents, the program recognizes the unique challenges these families face when relocating, allowing for more flexibility and accommodation during a transition period. This percentage is specifically set to help ensure that families can secure adequate lodging that meets their needs during their move.
