Expanded Homeowner's Assistance Program

Week of July 13, 2009

The Base Realignment and Closure decisions of 2005 has caused upheaval for some families, but help is available through the Department of Defense National Relocation Program, the Homeowners Assistance Program, and soon, the Expanded HAP. Besides standard Permanent Change of Station or PCS entitlements, the Department of Defense National Relocation Program provides relocation services, including a guaranteed home buyout process, to eligible DoD civilian employees so they can sell their homes at the prior-duty station and locate housing at the new duty station. The complete DoD National Relocation Program Handbook explains in detail the services available and the process required to obtain these services.
