As a consultant, occasionally you will take an assignment out of your home area. If the assignment is at least 75 miles from your home you may be entitled to take a "Per-Diem" expense reimbursement. Simply contact your personal assistant and they can determine if you fall within the Per Diem guidelines.

IPS members are eligible to be reimbursed for the costs associated with living away from home when the member is required to establish a temporary residence. The federal government allows expenses reimbursement up to a certain amount depending on the area of temporary residence. The Per-Diem amount is broken down into two allotments: meals and lodging, and is paid out to the member pre-tax from the member’s profit center.
