Telework Frequently Asked Questions

Telework Coordinator


Q:
Are business phone calls from the home reimbursable?


A:

Yes, a Federal employee may receive reimbursement for business-related long distance phone calls made on their personal phone. GSA regulations (41 CFR 101.7) provide for reimbursement of telephone calls approved by the supervisor. The employee should submit a standard form 1164 through appropriate channels to receive the reimbursement.

Agencies may also provide employees with government telephone credit cards.
