(1) If the eligible person elects to receive a scheduled payment in lieu of actual, reasonable and necessary moving expenses, the following schedules will apply:

ROOM-COUNT SCHEDULE

(2) In addition to the amounts specified in paragraph (1) of this subdivision, each relocated individual or family will be entitled to a $200 dislocation allowance. When garages, sheds and outbuildings are acquired and the eligible person's place of residence is not disturbed, or when the eligible person's principal place of residence is not the appropriated site, a fixed allowance may be applied per the aforementioned room-count schedules less the $200 dislocation allowance.

(1) If the eligible residential occupant elects to receive reimbursement on the basis of actual, reasonable and necessary moving expenses, he shall submit to the office at least four weeks prior to the moving date at least one estimate or bid from a recognized household furniture concern, together with a detailed inventory of all personal property to be removed. Such estimate or bid is to be in a form as prescribed in section 463.6 of this Part. After receipt of the estimate in acceptable form, an amount will be deemed reasonable and necessary by the office and the eligible person notified in writing to commence moving. Upon completion of the move, actual, reasonable and necessary moving expenses will be paid based upon receipted bills submitted to the office in an acceptable form consistent with section 463.6 of this Part, limited to an amount not to exceed the approved estimate.

(2) In the case of a residential self-move performed by the eligible person, his family and others not normally in the moving business, the move must be in compliance with all applicable State and Federal laws. All charges must be detailed in the form of a summary affidavit. In the event of failure to meet any of the above requirements as provided, payment will be limited to a lump-sum amount based on the counted-room schedule plus the dislocation allowance.
