Now avail LTC advance four months in advance
Relaxing norms, the Centre today allowed its lakhs of employees to take advance money four months ahead of commencing journey under Leave Travel Concession (LTC) rules. 

A government employee gets reimbursement of tickets for to and fro journey, in addition to leaves, when he avails LTC. 

The existing rules allow an employee to draw advance for LTC journey for himself and his family members 65 days before the proposed date of the outward journey. 

Since, the Ministry of Railways has decided to increase the advance reservation period for booking accommodation in trains from 60 to 120 days (excluding the date of journey) with effect from April 1 2015, the time-limit for drawable of LTC advance by the government servants may be increased from 65 days (i.e. two months and 5 days) to 125 days (i.e. four months and five days) in case of journey by train, an order issued by DoPT said. 

The cases where the LTC journey is proposed to be undertaken by other modes of transport viz air, sea or road, the time-limit for drawing LTC advance shall remain 65 days only, it said.
