Thanks for your posting. I agree with you and SalseroHK that I should get something and I too thought there would be some standard HR policy except I'm not so sure I'd actually get it. I am with a large MNC. I talked to a friend of mine who also works for our bank. She asked to move to Florida for personal reason (and does her job remotely) and she didn't get relocation either. The same thing was apparently true with my manager when she asked to move. I don't even know if I can now go back to them and say if you're not paying for relo then I'm not moving since I was the one who asked to move! Believe it or not, I actually can't sleep because of this!

Since you're in the same boat, would you mind giving me some tips as to what I should look for other than the following: closing costs, transportation, moving of personal belongings, temp housing. Should I see if they could pay my rent for me directly from my paycheck so it becomes a "housing allowance" for tax purposes?

Thanks!
