Company refusing to give Relocation bonus

Aug 20, 2019 7 Comments

Wife got an offer in WA and is relocating here soon. But her company is refusing to pay cash for relocation since they have a tie-up with a packing / moving company and is forcing us to use them. Otherwise we will have to relocate at our own cost.

The packing company is quoting 15k+ for relocating a 1bhk. Which we have to pay out of pocket and later submit a claim on which tax will be withheld. So, we are looking at a loss of around 6k for relocation.

What are my options here? Can we try pushing the HR asking for relocation bonus.
Please suggest packers and movers and also a car relocation services I can look into.
What cost can I expect? (Moving from TX to WA)
