Thank you Icanread....the pandemic has ensured that. You know, I read that some of those benefits are taxed? Is this true?
Icanread
Yes! Read more here. https://www.dodea.edu/Offices/ResourceManagement/PCS-and-Tax-Changes.cfm

Hopefully you have some movement by now. Not much help with who else to contact. Presumably your HR person should have at least been able to give you contact information, but it is always dangerous to presume I guess.

Nothing still! The HR person said there was nothing they could do and I just need to wait. So I will continue to wait and hope that there isn't an error causing the delay.

Nothing first hand. The school is relatively small (300 or so MS/HS combined last I looked). The ES on base is reasonable size (400 or so?). The only things I recall about the base is that it is relatively small and definitely rural.
As for the local area, it is Italy and it is Sicily, so certain things will generally go along with that (e...See More

Worked on Sig in the early 2000s. Haha's description fits with my experience. Sicily's landscape is pretty. Definitely rural and rustic. The schools were good, and the base had a good bit to offer. Enjoyed my time there.

Thanks, haha. Do you know when the transfer round will conclude?
haha
No. The deadline to apply has passed but we have not heard anything about when people are to get offers/be placed.

That is what I thought as well. Being established in DoDEA, makes me wonder if it was because they already had access to a lot of my information or if they possibly already had an ideal candidate and were doing others as a necessity. We had good discourse and I thought my responses went well...

Well, we generally do talk about two years of being on provisional status. But, in reality, they can apparently ask you to leave without having to provide justification up until the point you return and start your 3rd school year (after which point you are generally considered to be "permanent").

Strange. My original three did complete the forms, but 2 did it online through the system HR uses. Right when I applied in January, one got a reference email immediately. Then, after the annual recertification email, I reapplied and again, another one of my three references was sent the automatic reference form. The third, my principal, received an...See More

I'm not sure what the official requirements/policies and procedures are these days. I know anecdotally (in the past), many people seem to have been hired without 5 references. I don't think all of 3 of my EAS references were contacted again when I was hired (and am not certain if any of them actually were). Principals do sometimes ask for additiona...See More

Not much to offer. I remember reading/hearing that it is a very small school/base but that the local community/area is very nice. I also recall that it was problematic for anyone with HS age children.

Wondering how easy/difficult it will be getting into Europe during the pandemic. Int'l School of Florence options for those with HS kids that can handle their academics. No doubt a decision is coming down forthwith.
