Don't Leave Money on the Table: Claim Your Travel Entitlements

Most Marines who separate or retire from the Marine Corps rate travel entitlements (per diem and transportation allowances) from their final permanent duty station to their home of selection or home of record. But in 2014, only 29% of the Marines who left the Marine Corps submitted a final separation travel claim. The average payment for submitted claims was over $2,300. What could you do with an extra $2,300 after separation?

Claiming your travel entitlements is simple. Marines only need to complete DD Form 1351-2 and e-mail or snail mail it to their last servicing Disbursing/Finance Office, as indicated below.

Don’t leave money on the table. File your final travel claim! To learn more about travel entitlements contact your local Disbursing Office/Finance Office or the Transition Readiness and Personal Financial Management Programs.
