# §301-52.4. Procedure for challenging a claim disallowance.


Employees may request reconsideration of the agency's disallowance of their claim if the employee has additional facts or documentation to support the request for reconsideration. To challenge a disallowed claim, the employee must:

- (a) **File a new claim.**
- (b) **Provide full itemization for all disallowed items reclaimed.**
- (c) Provide receipts for all disallowed items reclaimed that require receipts, unless the agency already has the receipt.
- (d) **Provide a copy of the notice of disallowance.**
- (e) State the proper authority for the claim if the employee is challenging the agency's application of the law or statute.
- (f) **Follow the agency's procedures for challenging disallowed claims.**
- (g) If after reconsideration by the agency, the claim is still denied, the employee may submit the claim for adjudication to the Civilian Board of Contract Appeals in accordance with [48 CFR part 6104](/cfr/48/part6104.md).
