My no fee passports took over a month. Where are you going?

IsItFriday?
No.
That's the short answer.
Do you have return rights? If so, that will cover your flight and taxi ride, your HHG, and your POV shipment.
But once you step out of that taxi in the US, then they will drop you like a hot potato. No lodging, TQSA, meals, etc.
Start your search for housing immediately. Like now.

It depends where you're headed I imagine. What region are you moving to?

We sold our car before we left for $19,000 and took that with. We used all of it but some of it was reimbursed.

haha, thank you for what you do on these chatboards --- you provide a lot of substantive information that has helped people like me to begin their journey with DoDEA.
I loved my four years in Japan (Iwakuni), and would still be there were it not for pressing family matters that required my attention in the States.

Yes, it's a fairly long process, far longer than what DoDEA teachers have to do for other countries.
But it's doable.
Be methodical, save all paperwork, and never, ever rely on the advice given by HQ.
HQ can point you in the right direction, but they can't deal with the difficult questions. They are not experts, and have...See More

Thank you so much. I received another interview request from South Korea. I am wondering how the pay is there and if you receive COLA etc. I am thinking the USD goes much further.
haha
The pay is the same in S. Korea as in Japan (and most every other overseas location). Post Allowance will vary by location but Korea will generally be a little less than Japan. How far the $ goes varies a fair amount based on the location currency against the $. The last year or so has been excellent in Japan with the dollar being at near records h...See More

I am a new applicant to DODEA and have been approved for prek-3rd grade. I have received multiple invitations to interview from different schools and I've accepted the interviews (1 completed, 4 scheduled).
It looks like I missed a very important piece of...See More

Probably very similar to the ones for overseas:
Tell us about yourself and how your previous job experience has prepared you for this position?
Tell us about a lesson you planned. How did you know how it went, what you learned from it, and what you did as a result?
Think about a time that you had a wide range of students...See More

haha, as always, thank you. I always appreciate your time and effort to provide info to this board.

Usually, it seems like they are just trying to drum up more applicants for EAS and/or alert potential local overseas candidates (since many positions stipulate that the applicant must already be in the commuting area). And sometimes, they already know who they are going to hire but need to fulfill the requirement to post the position.

The USA Jobs postings that I've seen always link to the EAS application unless it's for an ISS or admin position.
Also, all openings must be advertised locally before opening up to other applicants (DoDEA and non-DoDEA).

No personal experience. My understanding is that the salary scale is higher than DoDEA overseas and you do get some type COLA or Post Allowance, which offsets the cost of rent to some extent. So, might be worth following up on.
