Department of Defense
National Relocation Program (DNRP)

The DNRP is a civilian employee relocation service authorized under 5 USC 5724, implemented under the Joint Travel Regulations (JTR), Volume 2, Chapter 5, and executed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers as a result of Defense Management Report Decision (DMRD 974). 

DNRP provides relocation services to eligible DoD civilian employees so they may quickly and efficiently sell their homes at the prior duty station and locate housing appropriate to their needs at the new duty station. 

DNRP services are authorized by the activity issuing PCS orders to the relocating employee. There is no cost for DNRP services for transferring employees.

DNRP services include:

• Counseling services for  employees
• Home Marketing Assistance
• Guaranteed Home Buyout offer to purchase the employee’s residence at the prior duty station
• Home Search Assistance and mortgage counseling at the new duty station

Since its inception in 1987, the relocation program has helped thousands of employees sell their homes through the Guaranteed Homesale Program, rent their homes through the Property Management Program, and purchase or rent in a new town through Destination Services. The complete DoD National Relocation Program Handbook, revised December 2008, explains in detail the services available and the process required to obtain these services.

For additional information concerning the DNRP, please visit the DNRP web page, or call the toll-free information line, 800-344-2501.

If you are a BRAC-affected transferring employee utilizing DNRP services, you may also be eligible for benefits under DoD’s expanded Homeowner Assistance Plan (HAP).
