Teach - 5 days from firm offer to orders! I got the firm offer on June 13 & received orders on June 15. I scheduled pack out & travel this last week. They are scheduling pack outs for mid July at the base closest to me. They told me Express Shipment (Unaccompanied Baggage takes 35-42 days to receive & HHG takes 65-72 days.

It took 25 days from submission of all of the paperwork after firm offer to orders for me. I am going tomorrow to set up our pack outs and travel.

This sounds like what happened to me. I could swear I set mine to the proper school year as well, everything showing green, back in Jan or Feb (or whenever we get that notice). But I wasn't getting any notices, so I checked, and sure enough it showed me as applying for the SY2018-19. I didn't bother to follow up on it mainly because I'm fully emplo...See More

Actually, I did end up inquiring by Email, and they got me straightened out immediately. I'm not on for 2017-18... better late than never I guess...

Check the school-year next to your transcript and educational certificate in the forms section. These two documents need to be re-uploaded each year. I went a few years with all green check mark, not realizing I needed to upload them again even if no changes had been made.

Agreed. I'm new here as far as posting, but I have been following the discussion for quite some time. Reading about others' experiences and concerns is both informative and reassuring.
Thank you for this labor of love.

RedClover are you in the San Juan Islands? Just curious because I'm from there and I read that you need to coordinate ferry times (Oh I've been there!).

No, I live along the Inside Passage in Alaska on an island near Juneau. They finally got most of the trip booked, but still working on the bush flight out of my village. They had to get extra authorization because of all the steps to get me there. It all worked out in the end though!

The page is set to refresh after a certain number of minutes. It looks like the javascript that was throwing a confirmation alert isn't firing. I'll see if I can track it down, sorry for inconvenience....

Got it - it was the new comment field not alerting the browser, the top form was still working right.

Well I had my first interview yesterday and I am super excited and nervous. I feel like I did well, but don't want to get my hopes up. If you all could say a little prayer for me, I would appreciate it.
I also have a question. I am currently a government employee for a different agency. Does anyone know if I would need...See More

Congratulations! I will be praying for you. As for the background check. If you went through EQuip within the past 5 years, supposedly you are not required to do it again. However, some people already in DoDEA who are going between DDESS and DoDDS are being required to go through the process even when their last Equip background check was within th...See More

No problem! We truly love Japan. Most people seem to want Europe right away but we actually started there. Liked it for a few years but really missed Japan (we had taught there before with an int'l school and really wanted to get back here). So, I was able to get a transfer to Japan and my spouse got picked up as a local hire right away.

Is your husband's application active too? If he is hired before you arrive there, I believe he also gets CONUS benefits, but if hired after you arrive, is hired as a local hire. Just a thought. congratulations!
