HEIDELBERG, Germany — The 2011 Overseas Housing Allowance Utility/Recurring Maintenance Survey, which started March 1 and was scheduled to end Thursday, has been extended to April 15.
All service members who have lived in a private lease dwelling under the OHA program in Germany for at least the past six months are eligible to take the online survey by visiting www.eur.army.mil. The survey link is posted under “most requested links” on the “For USAREUR Community” page.
The Department of Defense uses data from the survey to determine the utility/recurring maintenance allowance for service members residing in the survey country. Because accuracy is important, survey participants should use records and receipts to help them report the average monthly cost of each of their utilities, as well as the average monthly cost of any routine maintenance expenses.
