When is the first pay period for the new school year with the 2017 salary? I read somewhere that teachers new to DoDEA are paid 21 paychecks instead of 26? Why is this, and will the 21 paychecks still total our yearly salary?

Jim Haha- Do you pay insurance for base doctors or off base? And what you're saying about the LQA is that you get it during the summer too?

haha Our insurance covers both. On base will file with the insurance but off base you have to pay at the time of service and then get reimbursed (which is fairly fast and dependable).

Insurance premiums for a family of 3 are around $150.00 a paycheck.

Happy Teacher On the insurance topic - I know that some bases are already doing this, but they are moving to all prepay/reimbursement for civilians.

HelpOthers The $150 per paycheck for medical insurance is based on bi-weekly payments (26 paychecks), so it should be higher payments on 21 paychecks to make up for not paying it during the summer. The total for the year would be the same.
