Relocation
We are responsible for allocating the reimbursement of relocation expenses and associated expenses, such as excess travel costs, for all junior doctors on a recognised London training programme in Primary and Secondary Care, and those on KSS training programmes, whilst they are employed by a London or KSS Trust.
Refer to the Relocation Guidelines (listed under downloads) for more information regarding the expenses the Relocation Department reimburses.
Please note that the Relocation Department does NOT reimburse travel related to on-call commitments, clinical travel or interview related travel.
- If you want to claim travel related to on-call commitments or clinical travel please contact your medical staffing officer at your employing trust.
- If you wish to claim interview related travel please contact medical workforce
First Step
Fill out and submit the online 'Relocation Eligibility Form'
Refer to the ‘How to Claim' relocation expenses page for further guidance on how to claim reimbursement of your relocation expenses.
Please note that some relocation expenses are subject to tax and national insurance. This is definitely the case when claiming excess travel and continuing commitments expenses. We will clarify whether your expenses are taxable in your eligibility letter.
Second Step
Only when you have completed the eligibility process and received a letter of approval can you send in a claim, please refer to the ‘Approved Expenditure Claim Forms’ page for the necessary forms.
Please be advised that we deal with all queries via email as we need to have a clearly documented record of all correspondence. If you have any queries please send them via email to relocation@londondeanery.ac.uk
We respond to all queries as quickly as possible.
The Relocation Team consists of Tracie Whitley, David Pardue and Carol Wells.
All claim forms should be posted to:

We request that all claim forms are posted using recorded delivery, so that you can check their status using the post office website. We are not responsible for any claims lost in the post and reimbursement of expenses can only be made with original receipts.
