School Psychologist: Okinawa
Counselor: Daegu
Although they are only open to current DoDEA teachers working in the complex, if they are not filled they would then likely have to go stateside (if they don't open it up to DoDEA worldwide).

Psych is correct. Because of an agreement with the union, positions are first available to people in the commuting area, then the district, then area, etc. The school counselor and school psychologist positions are paid more than teacher positions (different pay scales). Therefore, it seems recently that the positions have been made available to pe...See More

I don't disagree with any of that. Although, there were a fair number of counselor positions in the transfer round last year (like maybe close to 10). They were all combined with a teaching position though so that probably makes a difference.

Sounds like it has made it to the next level, but is not yet complete.

Thanks!

They can either be considered dependents if you provide a certain percent of their support or they will be considered MOH which is members of household. Hopefully someone else will also chime in but from what I understand as MOH they are not given access to base shopping, airfare (even in an evacuation), and many other benefits. They can live with ...See More

Okay that's about where we are now (starting week #4 since tentative offer). Once you submitted the online questionnaire and fingerprints, how long after that did you receive official offer and orders? Again, I know everyone's timeline is different haha but it's nice to have a ballpark idea :) thanks for the info!
Ida
I think about 2 1/2 weeks for the firm offer and then 2 more weeks for the orders.

It's supposed to be a percentage of your disposable income (or something like that) but it never made any sense to me. Luckily, I just came across this COLA calculator which worked out to very close to what we get:

Thank you haha. When I receive my first full paycheck, I will see how close the calculator is for me. If even a little close, this is a helpful tool.
I have all my paperwork in and am waiting for E-Qip. Will I get a link? Do I go in somewhere? How does this work? Is this the background check, or are they already doing background check work?
Thanks in advance.
Thanks in advance.

You will receive an email from security personnel that gives you access to the e-QIP site. Detailed instructions will be included with the email. You can google the form so I have an idea of what information you need, so when you get it, you can just copy the info.

I got the e-mail about 2 weeks after the tentative offer. I already had a word document with all addresses and relevant info, so filling it out was quick and easy. I believe it is part of the background check process. If I remember correctly, you have to list all of your addresses for the last ___ years and addresses of references.

I say, yes, still include the notarized letter granting permission to move overseas so there is no doubt that he has been notified. Besides, he will still have to sign/notarize DS-3053 for official passport for minor child(ren).

HR will let your friend know if DLA will require her to go to court or not. I wouldn't worry. If she hasn't heard anything yet, she may be in the clear. Just have her ask HR to touch base with them regarding visitation rights... :-)

Thank you for that information. I received my tentative offer on 08/04, returned it on 08/07 and then received passport info on 08/08. No E-Qip or physical info yet, but it's still early.

Also, the divorce states that if they live more than 100 miles away, visitation will continue as stated, "unless otherwise specified". Could a letter be created and signed by both parents to clarify the other type of visitation agreement? Sorry for all the questions!
micorazonkilleen
Have her send divorce decree and find.all order to HR to see if they can check with DLA in advance to see if it will be an issue!!! Be proactive. Tell her to tell them she's hear about others having to go to court to have visitation rights modified and want take care of issues in advance if necessary!!

When did you do your E-Qip? How much time passed between the E-Qip and firm offer?
i❤️slps
e-QIP submitted July 26th and firm offer and travel orders received at the same time on Aug 2nd. My background check may have possibly not taken a lot of time because my previous one just expired earlier this year.
