Traveling:
CG Personnel Service Command (PSC) and the CG Finance Center (FINCEN) have restored the capability for people who have
submitted Coast Guard travel claims to view their associated Travel Voucher Summaries (TVS) online. A TVS will show you what
elements of your travel claim have been reimbursed, and how they add up to the Electronic Fund Transfer (EFT) that is deposited
directly into your prescribed bank account. This system only reflects TVSs for official travel claims (e.g. - travel associated
with attending a C-school or conference on Coast Guard orders...not for Auxiliary patrol orders) for the past 90-day period.
You can access this capability a couple of ways:
- If you are at the PSC web site (http://www.uscg.mil/hq/psc/):
- click the "Travel" button in the top horizontal menu bar - this will take you to PSC Travel Branch page.
- then click the "Travel Claim Status & Voucher Summaries" button immediately below the top horizontal menu bar
- this will take you to the "Travel Claim/Voucher Status" page
- plug in your Social Security number where indicated (it's a secure entry)
- click and your TVS history for the past 90 days will appear.
- If you want to go directly to the TVS web site, type the address (https://www.fincen.uscg.mil/tvs_aux/)
- once there, plug in your Social Security number where indicated, then click for your TVS history for the past 90 days.
As reviewed and summarized by the Auxiliary's Information and Communications Services Department, with online access to
your Travel Voucher Summary (TVS) system restored, there are now three important resources to make Coast Guard travel reimbursement
and review much easier:
Combined, these make for an easier and more accurate way to process and review your Coast Guard
travel (not patrol order) claims. The increased accuracy
reduces processing time which means faster payments.
*** To get a status on your Patrol orders go to the
CG Finance page and enter your 13 digit patrol
order number.
