I haven't received my orders yet and it's very likely that I may arrive late to my duty station. If that's the case, are we still paid for those days we miss since it's not our fault? Also, how do those missed days factor into absences?

Also, I once heard from a DoDDS teacher that it took up to two months before she received her paycheck. How typical is that? I just want to make sure there is enough in my bank account when I arrive for initial expenditures in case it takes a while before we're paid and receive reimbursements for housing, etc.
haha My understanding is that you are only paid for days you work and/or after you report to your duty station.

Two months is very unusual. Once you receive your orders/report, things generally happen very quickly. Also, you can request a 3 month salary advance which is usally in your account with a week to two weeks.
