May a career SES member elect to retain coverage under the recruitment or relocation incentive authority when he or she accepts a Presidential appointment under 5 CFR part 317, subpart H?
No. Under 5 CFR 317.801(b), an SES member may only elect to retain basic pay, performance awards, rank awards, severance pay, leave, and retirement provisions. Recruitment and relocation incentives are not basic pay for this purpose.
