Amount of DTE if travel is within 50 kilometre radius

Amount of DTE if travel is within 50 kilometre radius

Question

Sender: Sana mapost. Since lumabas ang EO 77 nung 2019, nagkiclaim ako ng P330 ng (not beyond sa 50 km. radius)

Then, an auditor called me, what is my basis daw for claiming 330? Sabi ko EO 77. Sabi nya, hindi daw ganun, 220 lang dapat, which is incidental expenses. So wala pala kami meal allowances? Ganun daw dapat. So ask ko lang po, kaninong interpretation po ng mga EO at Circulas ang tama?

Kasi based po sa EO 77, allowed kami ng 220 DTE kung sa munisipyo lang kami pupunta.(Which is di namin ginagawa kasi maaabuso ang budget). BT lang po ako. Sana may makasagot.

Nakalagay po sa guideline kung uwian naman po kayo at hindi sya lalagpas sa business hours, 30% of meal component which is 198 lang (660*30%) plus the actual fare lang yung [ang] pwedeng i-charge.

As per EO 77 Ang allowed lang na ma claim if within 50 km [radius] at uwian kayo ay actual fare lang at meals na 30% ng meal component of the DTE.

For example Ang travel ay NCR, ang NCR ay may maximum na DTE na 2,200. Ang authorized meal component ng NCR ay P660 (2,000×30%).

Yang 660 pesos ay i-times mo sa 30% ulit which is equal to 198 pesos only. Yan lang ang maximum na pwdeng ma-claim.

Wala pong nakalagay na pwdeng magclaim ng incidental expenses.
Thank you .

Pag within 50 km [radius] po, ay meal at prevailing rate lang sa transportation ang allowed, wala po ang incidental.
