- Foreign Transfer Allowance. Ten days before I depart for my new job, I'm allowed to move into lodging and get a per diem based on my family size.
- TDY. While I'm traveling, I'm allowed a certain amount of travel expenses, including bus fare from the airport to the duty station.
- Temporary Government Subsistence Allowance. After I arrive, and while I'm looking for housing, I'm reimbursed based on lodging and subsistence expenses up to a certain limit based on family size.

- Living Quarters Allowance. This allowance covers rent, utilities, and initial expenses (but not security deposit).
