LIVING QUARTERS SUMMARY EXPENDITURE REPORT
INSTRUCTIONS
The information provided in this report is used to determine the Living Quarters Allowance (LQA) rates. Guidance on reporting is contained in the Department of State Standardized Regulations (DSSR)
Sections 072,077, and Chapter 130. The completed report should reflect the annual costs of suitable and adequate living quarters for a U.S. Government civilian employee and his/her family. Adequate
living quarters conform to standards established by the Department of State Bureau of Overseas Building Operations (OBO). List privately leased quarters that have been occupied within the last 12
months. Exclude government leased and personally owned quarters. Exclude LQA costs for employees who are required to share living quarters with other USG employees to whom they
are not related and for employees whose spouses receive quarters allowances in their own right (e.g., tandem couples). Report all costs in the currency used for payment and specify the
currency. Sign and date this report to certify completion in accordance with Chapter 130 of the DSSR. Submit a separate report for each post. This submission may be accompanied by a listing of
individual houses or apartments rented for employees by the U.S. Government during the last 12 months and the estimated (actual when available) annual rent and utilities expenses for each unit.
