We just did a DITY a little over a month ago & are waiting on our payment, the last DITY we did was in 2004... We were paid by check, it took about 3 or so months to get the check in the mail.

I found this on a website, maybe this will help.

# You will be paid 95% of what it would have cost the government to do the move, regardless of gas, lodging, etc. Per Diem and travel entitlements are handled by your service branch's travel department; please consult them regarding per diem, lodging, etc.

# However, you should save your receipts for gas, tolls, boxes, tape, and rental vehicles. Your DITY pay (that 95% figure) is taxed at a rate of 28%, but taxes will not be taken out of any amount covered by these receipts.

hope this helps you a little!

We did a full dity last year.
The website... www.ditymovers.com was a bevy of info.
Good luck!

We did full DITY and our money was direct deposited into our account.

I found what I was looking for thanks for the ditymove website it had this:

A fictitious example:
A government employee moves their own goods themselves. The weight of their goods and the distance moved work out to a $5,000 reimbursement from the government.
The employee submits receipts for expenses amounting to $3,000.
The difference between the two amounts ($2,000) is the amount that is subject to federal tax. 28% of the $2000 ($560) is kept by the government as withholding.
The payment to the employee will be equal to the total reimbursement ($5,000) minus the government withholding ($560). The employee receives $4440

this is what I needed to know!!!

you girls ROWK!!!!
