Frequently Asked Questions
Fare for Visiting Region of Origin (TMWA)
Paragraph 3(a), Section SR 6.1.1 explains the implementation of TMWA where return trip fares are provided from the official's place of residence in the serving region to the capital of the region of origin or the main city in the region of origin. Accordingly, officers are eligible to claim return fares from their place of residence in the serving region to the capital of the region of origin. This means that the travel fare is eligible to be claimed by the officer from the officer's home in the serving region to the airport in the serving region as well as from an airport close to the capital of the region of origin.
Appendix I, Human Resources Service Circular: Regionally Transferred Officers Version 1.0 (2022) has interpreted “officer’s family” to mean the officer’s spouse and children under the age of 21 who are still dependent on the officer. For officers who have more than one wife, the Government allocates TMWA for one wife only. Meanwhile, all children under the care of officers are eligible for TMWA facilities.
Paragraph 3(b), Section SR 6.1.1 states that the fare rate covers the entire cost of transport fare including airplane fare which includes ticket price, airport tax, passenger insurance and fuel surcharge as well as travel claims if the officer uses his own vehicle.
In this case, the cost of transport fare means the Vehicle Travel Allowance or Public Transport Fare borne by the officer for the journey from the officer's place of residence in the serving region to the airport. If the officer chooses to use his own vehicle, the officer is eligible to claim the Vehicle Travel Allowance for the journey from the officer's place of residence in the service area to the airport, but the cost of parking at the airport is borne by the officer himself.
The count of one (1) year of Mrs. Sarah's service is from 24 November to 23 November of the following year. Mrs. Sarah can use this facility for the first time after 6 months of service, which is any time from 24 May 2021 to 23 November 2021. The second and subsequent use is at any time (without being bound to a period of 6 months like the first year) during the next one (1) year of service.
Section SR 6.1.1 has allocated TMWA to officers who change regions as a facility to enable the officer and his family members to visit the region of origin. This facility is given as much as one (1) time during one (1) year of service of the officer in the region he serves and facilities that are not used during that period will expire and cannot be carried over to the next year of service. The calculation of years of service is from the date the officer self-reported in the region to serve.
For example, an officer reports on 24 November 2020. One (1) year of service for an officer is from 24 November 2020 to 23 November 2021. The next one (1) year of service for TMWA purposes is from 24 November 2021 to 23 November 2022 and so on.
