Hi! I was informed that I had to return the clothing allowance. I was hired by the agency last February 1. However, I had a 13-day leave without pay in September. This December until February, I am set to take another leave. This is tagged as leave without pay for lack of leave credits. Items 8.1, DBM Circular No. 2018-1 provides, "..CA..shall be granted to those who are already in government service and are to render services for at least six (6) months in a particular fiscal year." Does this mean that I was disqualified because of the leave without pay last Sept and this coming December?
