General Provisions

20 CFR 25.1 - How are claims of Federal employees who are neither citizens nor residents adjudicated?

  • Section Number: 25.1
  • Section Name: How are claims of Federal employees who are neither citizens nor residents adjudicated? 
    This part describes how OWCP pays compensation under the FECA to 
employees of the United States who are neither citizens nor residents of 
the United States, any territory or Canada, as well as to any dependents 
of such employees. It has been determined that the compensation provided 
under the FECA is substantially disproportionate to the compensation for 
disability or death which is payable in similar cases under local law, 
regulation, custom or otherwise, in areas outside the United States, any 
territory or Canada. Therefore, with respect to the claims of such 
employees whose injury (or injury resulting in death) has occurred 
subsequent to December 7, 1941, or may occur, the regulations in this 
part shall apply.
