I was sent on a business trip from Dushanbe to Samara as the commander of a military unit. I didn't get an advance payment for travel. Upon arrival from a business trip, the chief of Finance of the unit refused to pay for travel expenses, as there was no telephone message from the division. What should I do now?

Senior Sergeant Valentina Viktorova.

Republic of Tajikistan

The procedure for reimbursement of travel expenses is established by the Instruction " On additional monetary payments to military personnel during official movements and sending them on official business trips "(Appendix No. 1 to Order No. 385 of the Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation of October 25, 1996). To cover personal expenses during business trips, military personnel are paid a daily allowance, reimbursed for the costs of renting housing and traveling to the place of business trip and back.

Payment for official business trips is made by the military unit in which the military personnel sent on a business trip are in service. Reimbursement of business trip expenses and travel expenses for persons sent to gatherings and meetings, upon calls to higher-level military command bodies, are made at the place of official business trip at the expense of established monetary limits (item 2 of Order No. 385 of the Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation of October 25, 1996).

If you are refused compensation for travel expenses, then in accordance with Part 1 of Article 4 of the Law "On Appealing to the court actions and decisions that violate the rights and freedoms of citizens", you have the right to file a complaint against the actions of the head of the financial service of a military unit directly to the military court or to a higher military management body. If the relevant military administration body refuses to satisfy the complaint or you do not receive a response to it within a month from the date of its submission, you have the right to file a complaint with the military court at the place of service.

WHAT IS THE STATUS OF RESIDENTIAL PREMISES

Can the commander of a military unit make the apartment in which I lived for 2.5 years a service one? Will I still have it if I quit at the end of my contract?

Senior Lieutenant Alexey Nalkin.

Zavitinsk, Amur region

In accordance with Article 101 of the Housing Code of the RSFSR, residential premises are included in the number of service premises by a decision of a local government body. The commander of a military unit does not have the right to do this.

In accordance with clause 6 of Article 15 of the Federal Law "On the Status of Military Personnel", military personnel, as well as citizens dismissed from military service, and their family members have the right to receive free ownership of the residential premises they occupy in accordance with federal laws and other regulatory legal acts, with the exception of official residential premises and residential premises in closed military small towns.

Unfortunately, you did not specify in your letter what the total duration of your service is and what the status of the residential premises you occupy is, so it is not possible to answer specifically whether you have the right to receive this housing free of charge after your discharge from military service or not.

PAYMENTS ARE MADE BY FORCE

When transferring from the Navy to the Strategic Missile Forces, I did not receive any cash payments from 1.04.98 to 31.08.98. I appealed to the military court, which ruled that the money should be returned to me. However, the above-mentioned payments by the commander of the military unit have not yet been made. Who should I contact now to exercise my legal rights? Do I have the right to index these payments?

Contract service Sergeant Oksana RUDENKO.

Mirny, Arkhangelsk region

Since the court's decision has entered into legal force, you need to apply to the court with a request to initiate enforcement proceedings in order to enforce it. It must be accompanied by a court decision. You do not have the right to index these payments.

HOW IS THE TOTAL LENGTH OF SERVICE DETERMINED?
