May an agency offer student loan repayment benefits in addition to existing bonuses and incentives?
Agencies may offer student loan repayment benefits in conjunction with recruitment, relocation and retention incentives. Agencies may also use student loan repayment benefits in conjunction with a physicians’ comparability allowance (PCA). However, 5 CFR 595.105(e) requires that the amount of the PCA be reduced by the amount of the student loan repayment.
